Abstract

The transient thermal hydraulic characteristics of CPR1000 were analyzed using RELAP5/MOD3.4 to verify the capability of the adopting air-cooled heat exchanger's emergency passive heat sink (EPHS) for accident mitigation under the condition of feed-water line break (FLB). The calculation results show that the EPHS of CPR1000 can supply the water to steam generator immediately and remove the core residual heat after the FLB successfully. Therefore, it demonstrates that the design of the EPHS of CPR1000 is successful.
