世界核能发电的现状及未来堆型的开发

自美国的三里岛及前苏联切尔诺贝利核电站事故之后,世界核能发展先进国家的核电发展计划处于停滞不前的状态,迄今也未出现明显复苏的迹象,而在经济快速增长的发展中国家,为了满足经济发展对电力的需求,出现了发展核电的强劲增长势头。面对这种趋势,以美国为首的核电发达国家,提出了第四代堆概念,以满足未来世界对能源的需求。本文介绍了世界核电发展的现状及第四代堆的概念与发展目标。

Status of Nuclear Energy in the World and Development of Future Reactors

Since the accidents in Three Mile Island in U.S.and in Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the former Soviet,there is no sign for the restoration of the nuclear development programs in the advanced countries,meanwhile economy grows rapidly in the developing countries whose development of nuclear power is blooming to meet the demand for electricity.Therefore,the countries with developed nuclear technology led by U.S.propose the Generation IV nuclear energy systems to meet the world demand for the energy.This paper introduces the status of the world nuclear energy as well as the concepts and objectives for Generation IV nuclear reactors.
