Protective barriers and related methods

Patent Chu, Henry Shiu-Hung; Bakas, Michael Paul; Johnson, Todd L.; ...

Protective barriers for protecting assets (e.g., electrical power transformers and other substation components). The protective barrier may include a lower portion and an upper portion. The lower portion may include first and second laterally spaced A-frame structures having a first protective member assembly extending between aligned legs of the respective A-frame structures on one side thereof. The first protective member assembly may include a first plurality of substantially horizontally extending protective members oriented at an angle relative to a horizontal plane. The first and second A-frame structures may have a second protective member assembly extending between aligned legs of themore »« less

Thermal protection barrier for delaying access

Patent Ripley, Edward B.; Miller, Jacob; Renner, Michael J.; ...

A thermal protection barrier including a base layer having a plurality of baffles with perforated walls and a high melting temperature granular media disposed within the plurality of baffles. When the base layer is breached by a thermal threat, the granular media is operable to flow through the perforated walls of the plurality of baffles to provide a controlled flow of granular media to an area proximate the breach for thwarting the thermal threat.

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
