摘要:
The invention concerns a thermal transfer layer with high transfer coefficient between two materials which can have different expansion coefficients. The thermal transfer layer comprises expanded graphite inserted between the materials which are selected from among carbonaceous materials, ceramics and metals or metal alloys. The expanded graphite is either inserted in the form of a rolled or compressed sheet, or is compressed in situ. The invention also concerns a device for the cooling of a structure subjected to intense, continuous, intermittent or pulsating heat flux, by means of fluid circulation tubes placed in the passages in the structure. A flexible material which is a good heat conductor in a compressed state, such as expanded graphite, is placed between the structure to be cooled and each tube.

摘要:
Process for obtaining uranium trioxide from a uranyl nitrate solution, the trioxide obtained having to have a specific surface between 12 and 15 m.sup.2 /g, consisting of producing in a zone of the reaction chamber called the contact zone, a thermomechanical contact between the uranyl nitrate solution, atomized into fine droplets according to a given axis in the contact zone, and a gaseous fluid introduced into the contact zone, the gaseous fluid being at a sufficiently high temperature and having a sufficiently high mechanical energy to carry out, within the contact zone, the dehydration and calcination of the uranyl nitrate.
摘要:
A thermal decomposition method useful in the nuclear industry for preparing a powdered mixture of metal oxides having suitable reactivity from nitrates thereof in the form of an aqueous solution or a mixture of solids. According to the method, the solution or the mixture of solids is thermomechanically contacted with a gaseous fluid in the contact area of a reaction chamber, said gaseous fluid being fed into the reaction chamber at the same time as the solution or mixture at a temperature no lower than the decomposition temperature of the nitrates, and having a mechanical energy high enough to generate a fine spray of the solution or a fine dispersion of the solid mixture, and instantly decompose the nitrates. The resulting oxide mixtures may be used to prepare nuclear fuels.
