Scaling analysis of the Direct Reactor Auxiliary Cooling System for Gas-cooled Fast Reactors during a Depressurized Loss of Forced Convection Event

Creator:

Blake, Grant C.

Abstract:

The Direct Reactor Auxiliary Cooling System (DRACS) is a passive safety system capable of removing decay heat directly from the reactor core. Its modularity makes it scalable for use in reactors with various power levels. Work has previously been completed to support inclusion of the DRACS in liquid metal reactors...
