Abstract:The concept of safety for facilities comprising nuclear power plants implies in large the use of passive systems. One of the main passive systems in a nuclear power plant is a system for cooling the reactor core with its action based on gravitational forces. In this regard, the importance of such a physical process as natural circulation is increasing with the development of nuclear power facilities. However, this system has not only advantages but some drawbacks as well. These are the emergence of instability… Show more
