Description

A new concept of energy supply system for nuclear district heating and electricity generation with dispersed power grid by small and medium nuclear power reactor is introduced. What is most important in district heating reactor is to guarantee the safety without helping the power or activity devices. Therefore, we adopt the natural circulation system without pumps because natural circulation ensures passive safety and reliability. To evaluate the natural circulation capability of REX-10, we design the test facility using Ishii' scaling law. We conduct at various powers in order to test the behavior of natural circulation of RTF
