The Special Power Excursion Reactor Test IV (Spert IV) reactor is a swimming-pool type nuclear research reactor which was constructed to provide a facility for conducting reactor kinetic behavior and safety investigations especially in the field of reactor stability. The facility was designed to incorporate a wide range of flexibility in flow rates and direction of flow, and has a heat removal capacity of 1 Mw thermal in addition to the heal sink capacity of the reactor pools. The engineering features of the reactor and support ing process equipment as constructed at the National Reactor Testing Station are described. (auth).
