This invention relates to steam generators, and more particularly to horizontal steam generators for nuclear power plants with a water-water energetic reactor (VVER). We claim a horizontal nuclear power plant steam generator comprising a cylindrical vessel, two elliptical bottoms, at least one feed water supply and steam removal connection pipe, an inlet header and an outlet header, a heat-exchange tube bundle connected to the same, wherein number Ntb of heat-exchange tubes in the bundle is selected depending on outer diameter dtb of the heat exchange tubes according to formulae. The technical result of the invention is an increased heat transfer efficiency in the steam generator with a limited number and maximum length of heat exchange tubes, which allows to use tubes employed in the industry.
