Effects of the Maximum Credible Accident Relevant to the Design of the Containment Shell, Experimental Low-Temperature Process Heat Reactor Project
Description:
The effects of the maximum credible accident relative to the design of the containment shell are discussed. The maximum credible accident is defined. The thermal and hydraulic effects of the maximum credible accident on the reactor system were analyzed. The extent to which fuelrod cladding will melt was estimated. The amount of energy released from the reactor system by the escaping steam and water and by a possible chemical reaction was calculated along with the corresponding pressure rise ins…
