New method of fabricating fin-cooled tank requires half as many arc-welding passes and features more efficient transfer of heat. Fins integral parts of tank structure. Requires only one welding pass per fin, and pass done on unobstructed inside of tank. With inside welding, fins longer and more closely spaced. Method proposed to build tank with 256 fins. Holds water in which radioisotope heat source immersed before use. Water absorbs bremsstrahlung radiation from isotope, and fins dissipate heat generated by absorption.
