원래 핵잠은 핵연료를 5년이나 10년 마다 교체 해줘야 되는데
영구원자로를 탑재 하게 되면 핵연료 교체 비용과 교체 뒤 재가동
하는 데 걸리는 한 달 공백이 없어지게 된다네요.
보레이급 전략원잠과 야센급 공격원잠에 최적화 돼있다고 하구요.
In Russia, an eternal nuclear reactor for new nuclear submarines
2018.08.07
In Russia, the active zone - the heart of the nuclear reactors of nuclear submarines
with a lifetime resource for the entire lifetime of nuclear submarines, that is, that does
not require recharging of nuclear fuel, was first created and tested, said annual report
of Rosatom State Corporation for 2017.
"The development, fabrication and inter-departmental testing of two transport active
zones - the optimized core for the 4th generation nuclear submarine with the campaign
until the medium repair of the ship and unique in the domestic history of the active zone
with a resource for the entire life cycle of the ship, was completed," the report says.
Russian submarines of the fourth generation include the submarines of the Borey and
Yasen projects.
The former commander of the Northern Fleet, Admiral Vyacheslav Popov explained that,
depending on the design of the boat and the mode of its operation, the recharging of the
reactor takes place every 5-10 years. The time for the restart of nuclear fuel is about a month.
