Water chillers are divided into air-cooled chillers and water-cooled chillers. The nuclear reactor containment is the outermost building of the pressurized water reactor. It refers to the outer shell building that contains most of the systems and equipment of the nuclear steam supply system. It is used to accommodate the reactor pressure vessel and some safety systems, completely isolating it from the external environment, hoping to achieve the function of a safety protection barrier. When a reactor loss of water accident or a main steam pipe rupture occurs, the containment needs to be cooled by water cooling equipment to ensure the integrity of the containment structure.

In the containment cooling system capable of improving the utilization rate of coolant, a cooling water tank is arranged above the containment, and the cooling water can flow to the spray head through the first connecting pipe under the action of gravity, and then be sprayed out by the spray head to realize the passive cooling of the containment. In this scheme, the spray head is arranged in the said gap, so that the cooling water can be fully contacted with the outer wall of the containment as much as possible, so as to improve the cooling effect of the containment, and at the same time, it is convenient to collect the cooling water after participating in the heat exchange for recycling. However, the containment cooling system capable of improving the utilization rate of coolant cools the containment by spraying cooling water through the spray head, so that the cooling speed of the containment is slow, which is not conducive to the repair of the nuclear reactor.
