The SUR is a Zeropowerreactor with continuous power of 0,1 W, peak power 1 W and was conducing for education. Load is about 3.4 Kg Uranium being enriched at 20 % 235 U. Caused by marginal power even in fission area there is nearly no increase of temperature, so a cooling system is needless. In cause of the low power there is nearly no combustion.

  • The SUR wasn't constructed for producing electricity or for research but only for education. Physical it is a real nuclear reactor, but the produced power is as low as there is no increase of temperature measurable while operating. Therefore a cooling system is needless. The fission area was consisting of stacked boards made of a homogeneous mixture of Polyethylene and Uraniumoxide U 3 O 8 enriched to 20% 235 U.
  • Educated were students of "common engine construction" ("allgemeiner Maschinenbau") and "apparatus construction and nuclear technology"
  • in spite of everything it is a real nuclear reactor with nuclear chain reaction regulated by regulator boards and other absorber
