Abstract
In Europe, the research on Supercritical Water-Cooled
Reactors is integrated in a project called "High
Performance Light Water Reactor Phase 2" (HPLWR Phase 2),
co-funded by the European Commission. Ten partners and
three active supporters are working on critical
scientific issues to determine the potential of this
reactor concept in the electricity market. The recent
design of the HPLWR including flow paths is described in
this paper. Exemplarily, design analyses are presented
addressing neutronics, thermal-hydraulics,
thermo-mechanics, materials investigations and heat
transfer.
