Research reactors
Research reactors are not used to generate electricity, but mainly for research purposes ( nuclear and material- technical studies, isotope production for medicine and technology ) are used.
The following list contains a complete overview for Germany, Austria and Switzerland. For other countries, only a few selected reactors are listed.
It was in June 2004 in 56 countries, 274 research reactors with a total of 3000 MWt in operation. Russia has the most research reactors, followed by the USA, Japan, France, Germany and China.

Reactor types
- Argonaut: An Argonaut is a special type of a training reactor.
- AST -500: a Russian nuclear reactor to generate heat and power.
- BHWR: Combination of CANDU and BWR
- CANDU: Canadian heavy water moderated pressure tube reactor
- PWR = pressurized water reactor: When pressurized water reactor is the water of the primary circuit, which is used as a refrigerant under high pressure.
- European Pressurized Reactor (EPR ) type of nuclear reactor based on a pressurized water reactor
- HDR = steam - boiling water reactor: A boiling water reactor with integral nuclear superheat.
- Homogeneously: a reactor in which the fuel is present as a mixture with a moderator or coolant.
- HTR = High Temperature Reactor: In the high-temperature reactor, the reactor core is cooled by the inert gas helium, which flows through the ball bed ( bed of spherical fuel ) is heated.
- HWR: A type of reactor in which heavy water is used as coolant and moderator.
- HWCR = heavy water moderated pressure tube reactor: The heavy water moderated pressure tube reactor with heavy water. The fuel elements are located within a number of tubes in which the coolant (heavy water or carbon dioxide ( CO2) ) rotates.
- KLT -40: pressurized water reactor for ships
- Convoy: A certain standardized design of pressurized water reactors. Built in this type reactors correspond to one of the world's highest safety standards of nuclear power plants.
- LWR = Light Water Reactors: generic term for PWR and BWR, where so-called light water is used as coolant and moderator.
- Magnox reactor: Magnesium Alloy Graphite Moderated Gas Cooled Reactor Uranium Oxide
- MTR: A material test reactor with a very compact reactor core to achieve the maximum neutron flux density.
- Pool: The fuel elements are immersed in an open pool of water, so that about interventions and experiments for research and education are possible.
- RBMK: A cooled with light water and moderated with graphite moderated pressure tube reactor with individual channels of Russian design.
- SNR = fast sodium -cooled breeder reactor: Nuclear fission occurs with fast, unabgebremsten neutrons.
- SUR = Siemens teaching reactor: The serving for educational purposes research reactors have due to the low power even in the cleavage zone virtually no increase in temperature, and therefore are unnecessary systems for heat dissipation.
- BWR = boiling water reactor: The boiling water reactor coolant water is transformed into steam in the reactor and to directly drive the turbine.
- TRIGA: A research reactor of the pool - type in which the security is guaranteed by the laws of nature and not by engineering measures that could be bridged.
- VVER: A pressurized water reactor of Russian design.
