More efficient nuclear energy?

Quote by Astronuc

Lower flow rate would not work in the core since heat transfer would suffer.

I meant "lower flow rate through individual SG tubes": if you have more tubes in SG, then you don't need to pump water as fast through each tube to achieve the same flow rate through SG.

Will this help in reducing vibration and wear?
