Book excerpt: A liquid metal cooled fast breeder reactor provided with an emergency core cooling system includes a reactor vessel which contains a reactor core comprising an array of fuel assemblies and a plurality of blanket assemblies. The reactor core is immersed in a pool of liquid metal coolant. The reactor also includes a primary coolant system comprising a pump and conduits for circulating liquid metal coolant to the reactor core and through the fuel and blanket assemblies of the core. A converging-diverging venturi nozzle with an intermediate throat section is provided in between the assemblies and the pump. The intermediate throat section of the nozzle is provided with at least one opening which is in fluid communication with the pool of liquid sodium. In normal operation, coolant flows from the pump through the nozzle to the assemblies with very little fluid flowing through the opening in the throat. However, when the pump is not running, residual heat in the core causes fluid from the pool to flow through the opening in the throat of the nozzle and outwardly through the nozzle to the assemblies, thus providing a means of removing decay heat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The construction of nuclear power plants in the United States is stopping, as regulators, reactor manufacturers, and operators sort out a host of technical and institutional problems. This volume summarizes the status of nuclear power, analyzes the obstacles to resumption of construction of nuclear plants, and describes and evaluates the technological alternatives for safer, more economical reactors. Topics covered include: Institutional issues-including regulatory practices at the federal and state levels, the growing trends toward greater competition in the generation of electricity, and nuclear and nonnuclear generation options. Critical evaluation of advanced reactors-covering attributes such as cost, construction time, safety, development status, and fuel cycles. Finally, three alternative federal research and development programs are presented.

Book excerpt: Nuclear reactor cooling systems are the backbone of nuclear power plants, playing a critical role in managing the immense heat generated by nuclear fission reactions and ensuring the safe operation of these facilities. These intricate systems are designed to effectively remove heat from the reactor core, transfer it to a secondary loop, and ultimately convert it into electricity. This book delves into the intricacies of nuclear reactor cooling systems, providing a comprehensive overview of their design, operation, and safety considerations. It explores the fundamental principles of heat transfer, the selection of suitable coolants, and the intricate flow patterns within the reactor core. Readers will gain a deep understanding of the different types of cooling systems, including pressurized water reactors (PWRs), boiling water reactors (BWRs), and gas-cooled reactors (GCRs). They will also gain insights into the advanced cooling concepts being explored for future nuclear power plants. Alongside these technical aspects, the book highlights the critical importance of safety in nuclear reactor cooling systems. Emergency cooling systems are meticulously designed to prevent and mitigate potential accidents, ensuring the protection of public health and the environment. This book is intended for a broad audience, including engineering students, professionals working in the nuclear industry, and those seeking a deeper understanding of nuclear power generation. It provides a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning about the intricate workings of nuclear reactor cooling systems and their role in harnessing nuclear energy responsibly.

This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Safety Guide provides recommendations on how to meet the requirements established in IAEA Safety Standards Series No. SSR-2/1 (Rev. 1) in relation to the reactor coolant system and associated systems for nuclear power plants. It is a revision of IAEA Safety Standards Series No. NS-G-1.9, which it supersedes. The publication takes into account developments, experience and practices in the design of nuclear power plants throughout their lifetime. It references and considers other IAEA safety standards that are relevant and related to the design of the reactor coolant system and associated systems for nuclear power plants. Recommendations to achieve the required reliability of the capabilities designed to transfer residual heat to the ultimate heat sink in the different plant states are also included. As those systems are dependent on specific reactor technologies, more appropriate recommendations have been developed respectively for pressurized light water reactors, boiling water reactors and pressurized heavy water reactors.

Download or read book Design of the Reactor Coolant System and Associated Systems in Nuclear Power Plants written by International Atomic Energy Agency and published by IAEA. This book was released on 2004 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication is a revision and combinaton of two previous Safety Guides: Safety Series No. 50-SG-D6. Ultimate Heat Sink and Directly Associated Heat Transport Systems for Nuclear Power Plants (1981). and Safety Series No. 50-SG-D13, Reactor Coolant and Associated Systems in Nuclear Power Plants (1986), which are superseded by this new Safety Guide. The revision takes account of developments in the design of the reactor coolant and associated systems in nuclear power plants since the earlier. Safety Guides were published in 1981 and 1986, respectively. The other objectives of the revision are to ensure consistency with the Requirements for Design, issued in 2000, and to update the technical content. In addition, an appendix on pressurized heavy water reactors has been included.
