Nuclear reactor types can be classified by power output and by the peak temperatures of their coolants (Fig. XXVI-4). Light water reactors (LWRs), such as the General Electric Economic Simplified Boiling Water Reactor (ESBWR), are low temperature, high pressure reactors.

The most relevant, current, and publically available set of subsidiary safety requirements for evaluating an AR are those used for the recent review of the economic simplified boiling water reactor (ESBWR), the largest passively cooled reactor that has undergone the full licensing process. The ESBWR is more than 1200 MWei and uses natural circulation of water for cooling (see Fig. 16.1).
