Cooldown criteria for light water reactors

Book ·
OSTI ID:6837743
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: (1) reactivity control; (2) reactor coolant system heat removal; and (3) reactor coolant system integrity, i.e., pressure control, and inventory control. This Standard provides criteria for the design of systems used to accomplish these functions.
