Passive moderator cooling system

Natural circulation cooling leads to low cost power generation. The core outlet temperature of 345°C and the pressure of 15.5 MPa have been selected for the core cooling system to obtain higher thermal efficiency. The coolant system does not use chemical shim for reactivity control. To compensate for bum-up reactivity swing, a perfectly passive reactivity control system is under study, based on burnable poisons in fuel and using moderator void feedback. [Pg.304]

In the VKR-MT reactor, micro fuel elements are used in a pebble bed form and are directly cooled by the lateral flow of a light water coolant-moderator. This feature could make it possible to create a reactor with a high degree of inherent safety features that prevent large releases of radioactivity from fuel in many accidents, including those caused by malevolent human actions. The use of passive air-based residual heat removal system secures that the NPP equipment retains its integrity and operability under failures of the normal cooling systems. [Pg.347]
