Nuclear heating reactor is integrated designed without main pump and safety injection system. The loss of coolant accidents are mainly in the form of small break LOCA. As no safety injection system is designed for coolant makeup, the water volume in the reactor vessel is critical since it determines whether the reactor will be submerged during the whole scenario. Therefore, the study on coolant loss in this pool system is indispensable. The RELAP5 code has been developed for best-estimate transient simulation of light water reactor coolant systems during postulated accidents. The long term effect in nuclear heating reactor is important. In this paper we investigated the influential factors on SBLOCA scenario and found the long term residual heat removal capacity is decisive in determining the loss of coolant. The residual heat removal capacity should be greater than 2% of reactor thermal power if ensuring the core submerged in the long run.

This paper regarded CNP1000 power plant system as the research object, which is the second-generation half Nuclear Reactor System in our country, and tried to set Westinghouse AP1000 passive residual heat removal system to the primary circuit of CNP1000. Then set up a simulation model based on RELAP5/MOD3.2 program to calculate and analyze the response and operating characteristic of passive residual heat removal system on assumption that Station Blackout occurs. The calculation has the following conclusions: natural circulation was quickly established after accident, which removes core residual heat effectively and keep the core safe. The residual heat can be quickly removed, and during this process the actual temperature was lower than saturation temperature in reactor core.
