This appendix provides additional materials (schematics, layouts, T—s diagrams, basic parameters, and photos) on advanced thermal (combined cycle and supercritical pressure Rankine steam turbine cycle) power plants and nuclear power plants with modern nuclear power reactors [pressurized water reactors (PWRs), boiling water reactors (BWRs), pressurized heavy water reactors (PHWRs), advanced gas-cooled reactors (AGRs), gas-cooled reactors (OCRs), light water-cooled graphitemoderated reactors (LGRs) (RBMKs and EGPs), and liquid metal fast-breeder reactors (LMFBRs) (BN-600 and BN-800)]. 

Two-circuit heat removal system with steam-water cycle of supercritical parameters is very difficult for realization, because super high pressure steam generator ( 250 atm) should be located inside the reactor vessel (BREST concept), and there is a real possibility of the core blockage by the products of water and heavy coolant interaction resulting in the core melt- down. Such incident took place in the propulsion reactor cooled by PbBi [7.11],... 

Parameters which are monitored for Ball <3X) circuit trip actuation are earthquake (magnitude 5 or greater on the modified llercalli scale) emergency cooling water flow to reactor failure of neutron flux to decay following a IX safety circuit crip, and reactor-supercritical-a ter a safety rod scram. ...
