Safety Systems

Passive safety systems have been widely applied to advanced water-cooled reactors, to enhance the safety of nuclear power plants. The ambitious program of the nuclear power development in China requires reactor concepts with high safety level. For the near-term and medium-term, the Chinese government decided for advanced pressurized water reactors with an extensive usage of passive safety systems. This paper describes some important criteria and the development program of the Chinese large-scale pressurized water reactors. An overview on representative research activities and results achieved so far on passive safety systems in various institutions is presented.

Abstract INCONEL FILLER METAL 52 is a high chromium filler metal for gas-metal-arc and gas-tungsten-arc welding of Inconel Alloy 690 (See Alloy Digest Ni-266, March 1981). Higher chromium is beneficial in resisting stress-corrosion cracking in high purity water for pressurized water reactors and for resistance to oxidizing acids. This datasheet provides information on composition and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as joining. Filing Code: Ni-412.
