On the new, most powerful in the world of Russian head versatile atomic icebreaker "Arktika" was the start of reactor unit 2 nuclear boiler, said Last news Commissioner of the state Corporation " Rosatom ". This means that began a controlled nuclear chain reaction and output of the reactor at the minimum power level sufficient to monitor the reaction. "Then, after the necessary tests will take place on the output of boilers in the energy power level. And then it is supposed to start and running checks of the "Arctic" - said the Commissioner of the state Corporation. the icebreaker has a new Russian reactor plant RITM-200 2 nuclear boiler thermal capacity of 175 MW each. Its main advantage is compactness and efficiency. She has a unique energy-efficient integrated layout, which provides the location of the main equipment specifically inside the case of the steam generating unit. Installation RITM-200 has a high reliability and security. Its developer - Nizhny Novgorod enterprise of "Rosatom "" Afrikantov OKBM ". The start-up and operation installation important from the standpoint of the development not only of the Russian nuclear icebreaking fleet, but the new Russian projects in the field of nuclear power generation." Rosatom " plans to a real project-a low-power nuclear power plants of modular type on the basis of modernized reactor plant RITM-200M, which is expected can become one of the export products of the state Corporation. Icebreaker "Arktika" was built by the order of "Rosatom" at the Baltic plant in St. Petersburg, handing it to 2020. currently the company is the construction of 2 serial nuclear icebreakers of project 22220 "Siberia" and " Ural ". In the last month of summer "Rosatom" and baltzavod signed a contract for the construction of 2 more nuclear submarines of this project. Universal nuclear-powered icebreakers LK-60п╞ capacity of 60 megawatts will be the largest and powerful in the world. They are necessary to ensure Russian leadership in the Arctic. The length of the vessel will be 173, 3 meters, width - 34 meters, a displacement - 33, 5 thousand tons. These icebreakers will be able to conduct convoys in Arctic conditions, punching ice up to three meters. They will provide pilotage of vessels with hydrocarbons from fields in Yamal, gydansky peninsulas and the Kara sea to the markets of the Asia-Pacific region. <span style="color:darkgray
