Abstract

PURPOSE:To remove heat by spraying spray water automatically from the upper part to the outside wall of a reactor container in reaction with a change in the internal temp. and pressure of the reactor container at the time of an accident. CONSTITUTION:A trench is provided on the outside circumference of the reactor container 22 housing a nuclear reactor 21 and the high-pressure piping of a primary system and is used as a water source pool 23. The water lifted by a lifting pump 25 from the pool 23 is sprayed from spray nozzles 27 via a link header 26 mounted above the container 22. The pump 25 and flow rate valve 30 are controlled to supply the spray water to the outside wall of the container according to the signal outputs from thermometers 28 and pressure gages 29 provided at several points in the container 22. The heat is thus automatically removed.

FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing the main components of the cooling system of the containment vessel of a conventional BWR. A reactor containment vessel 2 that houses the reactor 1 and the high pressure piping of the primary system is divided into upper and lower parts by a diaphragm floor. The upper part of the containment vessel is called a dry well 4, and the lower part is called a wet well 5. A suppression pool 6 is provided in the wet well and holds a large amount of cooling water.

At the same time, the containment vessel spray 11 is operated by the low-pressure water injection pump 10 powered by the emergency diesel generator 9, and the steam in the dry well is condensed and cooled. The water temperature in the suppression pool 6 gradually rises due to decay heat released from the reactor 1 into the dry well by emergency core cooling water. For this reason, the containment vessel is sprayed with a low-pressure water injection pump while being cooled by a heat exchanger 12 that exchanges heat with seawater.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, in the event of an accident, the piping that penetrates the containment vessel may be separated by a valve to prevent the release of radioactive materials into the environment. It could not be said that there was a possibility that the internal pressure of the containment vessel would exceed the design value due to boiling without stopping. Additionally, dry well coolers cannot be used for cooling in the event of an accident because the cooling water system is separated.

(Function) Since the spray water flows down the outer wall of the containment vessel to cool it down, the steam filling the containment vessel at the time of an accident is condensed and cooled. Furthermore, since the inside of the containment vessel can be cooled even during normal operation, it can also serve the same function as a dry well cooler.

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an embodiment of a nuclear reactor containment vessel according to the present invention. A moat is provided around the outer periphery of the reactor containment vessel 22 that houses the reactor 21 and the high pressure piping of the primary system to secure a water source pool 23. This water source pool 23 is connected to the ocean 24, which is an infinite water source, so there is no worry about the water temperature rising or drying up in the water source pool 23. The water lifted up from the water source pool 23 by the pump 25 is transferred to the ring header 2 installed above the containment vessel.
6 from the spray nozzle 27 and falls through the outer wall of the containment vessel. Heat is removed from the containment vessel through heat transfer by the flowing water. The water that cooled the containment vessel is transferred to water source pool 2.
There is a mechanism to return to 3. Also, during steady operation, thermometers 28 and pressure gauges 29 are installed at several locations inside the containment vessel, and their signal output determines the opening degree of the flow control valve 30 so that the amount of spray can be controlled. 61 (Other Embodiments) FIG. 2 is a diagram showing another embodiment of the reactor containment vessel according to the present invention. What is different from Figure 1 is the reactor containment vessel 22.
The spray tank 31 is placed at a higher location, and the spray tank 31 is filled with water using the water pump 25 or rainwater in advance, and a valve is operated mechanically in response to temperature changes or pressure changes in the reactor containment vessel. 32
(For example, a mechanism that supplies water until an appropriate water level is secured by changing the float, such as a water storage tank in a flush toilet) By opening and closing the system, it is possible to supply appropriate spray water.
