Thermal insulating barrier and neutron shield providing integrated protection for a nuclear reactor vessel

Patent Schreiber, Roger B [Penn Twp., PA]; Fero, Arnold H [New Kensington, PA]; Sejvar, James [Murrysville, PA]

The reactor vessel of a nuclear reactor installation which is suspended from the cold leg nozzles in a reactor cavity is provided with a lower thermal insulating barrier spaced from the reactor vessel to form a chamber which can be flooded with cooling water through passive valving to directly cool the reactor vessel in the event of a severe accident. The passive valving also includes bistable vents at the upper end of the thermal insulating barrier for releasing steam. A removable, modular neutron shield extending around the upper end of the reactor cavity below the nozzles forms with the upwardlymore »« less
