Experiment study on rod ejection accident of hydraulic control rod driving system
- 1. Tsinghua Univ., Institute of Nuclear Energy Technology, Beijing (China)
Description
The rod ejection experiment has been done in the 1:1 experiment loop of the hydraulic control rod driving system (HCRDS) of the 200 MW nuclear heating reactor (NHR-200). The result indicated that under different experiment conditions, the control rod was not ejected when the pressure vessel of the loop lost pressure. Based on the depressurization accident analysis of the NHR-200, performed at the Institute of Nuclear Energy Technology (INET), Tsinghua University, the depressurization rate of experiment is much higher than that of analysis. Thus, the HCRDS has inherent safety and no hidden trouble of rod ejection when the depressurization accident happens. (author)
