摘要
Investigation of the possibility to use a nuclear reactor for the propulsion of airplanes could be performed considering two possible solutions: the direct cycle (the fluid pass through the reactors core) and the indirect cycle (the fluid pass through a heat exchanger). We report about a complete theoretical study which has been performed for the indirect cycles. The cycles, the characteristics and the performances of nuclear jet engine have been calculated. For the nuclear reactor, a homogenous type using UO(2) as fuel, BeO as neutron moderator and B(4)C as the material for the control rods, has been considerate.
