REACTOR CAVITY COOLING

This case study demonstrates the investigation into the operating characteristics of a Reactor Cavity Cooling System (RCCS) during passive operation. The RCCS is a heat removal system designed to remove heat that is radiated from the Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) wall. The RCCS is able to operate during active operation where the flow is driven by a pumping system or during passive operation where flow is induced by means of buoyancy forces.
