Abstract
A conceptual design of a horizontal cylindrical prestressed concrete reactor pressure vessel for housing a large gas-cooled high power-density reactor and power generating equipment is presented. The evolution of the geometry of the vessel design is described. Structural considerations for a full chamber-size opening are outlined. The choice of tendons and anchorages is discussed. Consideration is given to the practical aspects of construction.
