METHOD OF QUICKLY RESTORING NORMAL AIR CONDITIONS IN BUILDINGS CONTAINING ATOMIC REACTORS AFTER A SUDDEN INCREASE IN PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE
Abstract
A scheme for cooling the air inside a building is outlined which does not require pumps or fans. In this scheme, air is cooled in the upper part of the building space by ammonia, carbonic acid, or other freezing medium led to the heat exchanger by its own pressure. The pressure is regulated so that the vaporization of the freezing medium occurs at a temperature a few degrees above 0 deg C. The scheme is especially applicable to reactor buildings into which large quantities of cooling water were discharged after pressurized water reactor accidents. (D.L.C.)
