Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of nuclear safety, more particularly to the technical field of preventing reactor core molten material from melting and damaging reactor pressure vessels when a major accident occurs in a nuclear power plant. Background technique
[0002] In the design of nuclear power plants, nuclear safety is the primary issue to be considered. After the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant accident in the United States in 1979 and the Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident in the former Soviet Union in 1986, the prevention and mitigation of severe accidents have become factors that must be considered in the design of nuclear power plants. After the Fukushima accident in Japan in 2011, the prevention and mitigation of severe nuclear power plant accidents have attracted more attention from the public, governments and safety regulatory authorities of various countries. The risks of nuclear power plants mainly come from pot...
