GT – MHR Reactor Cavity Cooling System

RCCS RCCS-SNU: water-pool type RCCS -- water natural convection -- air force convection Seoul National University Conduction – radiation – convection “Heat Transport and Afterheat Removal for Gas Cooled Reactors Under Accident Conditions”, IAEA-TECDOC-1163, 2000.

Conclusion from Idaho Nation Laboratory May 24 – 27, 2010 Heat removal mechanisms from RPV to cavity: – Thermal radiation (~80%) – Convection (~20%) RCCS heat removal mechanisms: Active cooling: air forced-convection Passive cooling: water boiling heat transfer & air natural convection 1. Accident fuel temperatures are insensitive to RCCS performance 2. Vessel temperatures are more sensitive to RCCS performance but still not a strong function 3. Reactor cavity concrete temperatures are a strong function of RCCS performance Y.J. Cho, M. O. Kim, G. C. Park, "Measuring Characteristics on Emissivity Using Infrared Thermometer for RCCS," NTHAS4: Fourth Japan-Korea Symposium on Nuclear Thermal Hydraulics and Safety, Sapporo, Japan, November 28-December 1, 2004
