Liquid-metal-cooled Reactors

Liquid-Metal-Cooled Reactor is a type of nuclear reactor that uses a liquid metal, such as sodium or lead-bismuth, as the primary coolant to transfer heat from the reactor core, distinguishing it from other reactor types by its high thermal conductivity, low neutron absorption, and operation at high temperatures without high pressure.
