Abstract

Abstract

Thermal performances of a high temperature gas-cooled reactor（HTGR） He/ammonia combined cycle（HAC） have been analyzed in this paper. Research shows that compared with the HCC cycle, the thermal and exergy efficiencies of HAC increase by 6.0 %-points and 8.1 %-points respectively, and achieve 46.2% and 62.0% separately. The HAC cycle has effective nuclear energy utilization and good prospects for development.
