The main goal of this advanced BWR is to replace the active safety systems used in current designs with passive safety systems enabling:
• Reliable control of the various design basis accidents;
• Low probability of beyond-design-basis accidents (core damage frequency);
• Limitation of the consequences of a core melt accident to the plant itself;
• High plant availability;
• Economic competitiveness.
Various features have been changed compared to existing BWR designs, including:
• Larger water inventory in the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) above the core permits passive core cooling;
• Larger water storage capacities inside and outside the reactor containment providing long grace periods and avoiding the need for prompt operator intervention, especially during and after accidents;
• Activation of key safety functions such as reactor scram, containment isolation and automatic depressurization is backed up by passive systems (passive pressure pulse transmitters);
• Passive cooling of the reactor pressure vessel exterior in the event of a core melt accident ensures in-vessel melt retention;
• Despite the introduction of passive safety systems for accident control the operating experience gained from current BWR plants constitutes the basis for the new concept;
• Simplification of reactor auxiliary systems and systems used for normal power operation.
