Various instruments such as neutron detectors are incorporated to constantly monitor the operating status of the plant. If an abnormality should occur and the signals of these instruments exceed a certain set level, the control circuit is activated, control rods and safety rods are inserted into the core, and the reactor is shut down. For example, when the main circulation pump stops due to an accident such as a power failure, it immediately switches to a diesel-powered pony motor, but the flow rate decreases. Detecting this, a control rod or safety rod is inserted. For example, in the case of a safety rod, it is held in a state of being suspended by an electromagnet, and the electromagnet is de-energized by the above-mentioned signal, and it is inserted into the core by its own weight or by using the pressure of compressed gas together. ing.

[Function] Liquid metal has a high saturation temperature even in the atmosphere (for example, about 881 ° C. for sodium), and in a reactor using it as a coolant, some abnormality occurs in the cooling system and the output system, causing the temperature of the coolant to rise. But it is hard to boil. However, the free liquid level of the reactor rises due to the volume expansion of the coolant as the temperature of the liquid metal rises. The liquid surface area limiting mechanism has a function of expanding the liquid level change due to the volume expansion of the liquid metal to improve the sensitivity. As the liquid level of the coolant rises, the float floating in it also rises. The raising of the float drives the adjusting rod connected to it and inserts it into the core. This suppresses reactor reactions. That is,
This means that a unique nuclear reaction suppression mechanism that utilizes physical phenomena is provided without intervening intermediate systems such as electronic circuits.

The shape of the inner cylinder portion 32 of the liquid surface area limiting mechanism 30 is determined by the size of the entire reactor vessel 10 and how much the sensitivity of the liquid level change is given. Liquid sodium expands by about 3% in volume when the temperature rises by 100 ° C. On the other hand, the volume change of the stainless steel during that time is about 0.2%. Therefore, as a trial calculation, it is assumed that the lower portion of the reactor vessel having an inner diameter of 4 m is filled with sodium having a depth of 15 m. If this sodium is 500 ℃
From 550 to 550 ° C., the sodium volume increases by about 2.6 m 3 . Assuming that the liquid surface area limiting mechanism 30 covers 70% of the space cross-sectional area in the reactor vessel, the float 42 will have a volume of about 42 due to the volume expansion of sodium.
cm rise. As a result, the reactor power adjusting rod 44 is inserted into the core 14 by about 42 cm.

When the temperature of the liquid metal coolant rises due to the abnormality of the reactor system, the liquid level rises due to the volume expansion of the liquid metal, and the float 42 moves upward accordingly. The movement of the float 42 directly causes the reactor power adjusting rod 44 to be inserted into the core 14 without an electric signal, and the nuclear reaction of the reactor is suppressed. When the coolant temperature decreases, the position of the float 40 also decreases, the reactor power adjusting rod 44 is pulled out from the core 14, and the nuclear reaction of the reactor approaches the rated value. When the liquid level is below a certain set position, the adjusting rod receiver 48 contacts the reactor internal structure 12,
The reactor power adjusting rod 44 is held at a fixed position.
