The external holdup of expensive materials and associated capital costs for the heat removal systems of fluid fuel breeders were determined. The aqueous homogeneous and molten salt breeders were found to contain substantially less uranium holdup external to the core than the liquid metal fueled breeder. The cost of heat removal and turbogenerator plant equipment for the three systems was compared. (auth
