Abstract

A method of determining the economic factors of double-purpose systems is set out; this provides separate and fairly strict determinations of the expenses involved in the production of electrical power and fresh water, and hence enables their net cost to be ascertained. The effect of the main parameters of the system on the net cost of fresh water is examined. The economic indices of double-purpose systems with reactors of various types are calculated for several values of their thermaI power.
