   You didn't answer my question.   
      
   The "apparatus for producing refrigeration" is described in detail   
   in the patent application.

   This isn't a scientific text you have to be a physicist to understand.   
   An engineer should be qualified to read it.   
      
   Why can't you read it an see for yourself what kind of apparatus its is?

   Can you point out where in the detailed description it   
   is clear that the apparatus is a part of a fast breeding reactor?

   The lines in the text are numbered, so it should be easy to refer to   
   the relevant section.
