Abstract

A schematic of a low-power nuclear power unit with circulating fuel based on molten metal fluoride salts is considered. The possibility of creating a virtually maintenance-free reactor facility with a thermoelectric generator with a power of 1 to 500 kW e and a lifetime of 5–10 years or more is discussed.
