A spray cooling technique for spent fuel assembly stored in pool
-
Dao-Gang Lu
Abstract
For the safety of spent nuclear fuel assemblies stored in storage pool in the extreme condition where the water is lost completely, a passive spray cooling technique was designed, and its effectiveness has been validated by a functional experiment. The spray cooling characteristics of the spent fuel assembly have also been investigated by the experiment.
Kurzfassung
Zur Beherrschung der Situation, dass im Lagerbecken für abgebrannte Brennelemente das gesamte Wasser vollständig verloren geht wurde ein passives Spritzkühlverfahren entwickelt. Dessen Wirksamkeit wurde in einem Funktionsversuch validiert. Die Spritzkühleigenschaften der abgebrannten Brennstabbündel wurden bei dem Versuch ebenfalls untersucht.
