Australia says China can be used for advanced gas-cooled reactor technology, nuclear bombers made « Military of China, force comment.

article said that China’s gas-cooled reactor uses helium as working gas, helium is an inert gas, with magical properties, will not become a secondary radiation produced by the reaction of fuel and radiation, so reactor does not require a comprehensive radiation protection, greatly reducing the need to protect the area of ??radiation protection is limited to core body itself, so that lead cooled reactors, pressurized water reactors receive the necessary protection. Moreover, the geometry of metal reactor (geometric metal heap) the weight will certainly be greatly reduced, and the reactor volume will be reduced according to aviation. This is a big performance advantage, the other reactors can not be a comparable. This allows the required gas-cooled reactors and the protection of the stereotype geometric PWR reactors have a lot less metal, reactor weight and size are significant decline in aviation to use as possible.
