Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, the heat pipe reactor is a new technology, and its technical feasibility needs to be further verified.

At the same time, most of the research still stays on the test of a single component, and there is still a lack of relevant research on the coupling characteristics with the heat pipe reactor integrity, and its integrated integration characteristics need further research
