In order to help folks that might have the data you
are interested in, it would be beneficial to provide
a little more information.
What is the intended purpose for the requested data?
10 MW(e) or 10 MW(t)???
A 10 MW reactor is too small to be a commercial design.
Basic design information is also important, as every system
is different. Some prototypes were of that size, or
thereabouts. The smallest commercial reactor would probably
be Big Rock Point, I believe, weighing in at 62 MW(e).
Also, what edition of the RHH are you looking at???
I have two versions, neither of which has this type of
info on p. 429.
