American National Standard: cooldown criteria for light-water reactors

Technical Report · Tue May 10 00:00:00 EDT 1983

OSTI ID:5641831

This standard provides design criteria for systems and equipment necessary for the performance of those nuclear safety functions that are required to achieve and maintain a safe shutdown of the reactor to cold shutdown conditions from a hot standby or post accident condition. The following nuclear safety functions are addressed in this standard: reactivity control; reactor coolant system heat removal; reactor coolant system integrity; pressure control; and inventory control. The standard provides criteria for the design of systems used to accomplish these functions.
