Experimental Investigation of a Two-<br />
Phase Closed Thermosyphon Assembly<br />
for Passive Containment Cooling System<br />
Kyung Ho Nam and Sang Nyung Kim<br />
1 Introduction After the Fukushima accident, increasing interest has been raised in passive safety systems that<br />
maintain the integrity of the containment building. The conventional containment building is a thick, airtight reinforced<br />
concrete structure the design of which is highly unfavorable for removing heat from the containment atmosphere to the<br />
environment following an accident. Therefore, the sprays and/or fan coolers are installed to control the containment<br />
pressure and temperature for maintaining the integrity of the containment. However, either sprays or fan coolers are<br />
dependent on the power supply, which is unreliable if Design Basis Accidents (DBAs) are coupled with a station blackout<br />
(SBO) or Extended Loss of AC Power (ELAP). Therefore, to improve the reliability and safety of Nuclear Power Plants<br />
(NPPs), long-term passive cooling concepts have been developed for advanced reactors. In a previous study, The<br />
proposed design was based on an ordinary cylindrical Two-Phase Closed Thermosyphon (TPCT).[1] The exact assembly<br />
size and number of TPCTs should be elaborated upon through accurate calculations based on experiments. While the<br />
ultimate goal is to propose an effective MPHP design for the PCCS and experimentally verify its performance, a TPCT<br />
assembly that was manufactured based on the conceptual design in this paper was tested. Figure 1.<br />
