Abstract: HTTF at Oregon State University (OSU) Reference: General Atomics’ modular high-temperature gas-cooled reactor Helium cooled, electrically heated (2.2 MW) Prismatic graphite blocks in the core and reflectors Alumina ceramic blocks are used to simulate the core and top and bottom reflectors One-fourth scale in length and diameter Most of the coolant channels in the core are full scale Lower pressure compared to the prototype reactor (0.7 MPa) Over 500 instruments Designed primarily to investigate depressurized (DCC) and pressurized (PCC) conduction cooldown transients
