AbstractAbstract
[en] The prototype large breeder reactor (PLBR) is a 1000 MWe sodium cooled fast breeder reactor designed to succeed the Clinch Breeder Reactor and verify scaling laws. Several conceptual PLBR designs have been presented for consideration. A procedure is needed for the conceptualization of, evaluation of, and selection between such designs. This paper presents a method that can be effectively used to: (1) allocate optimal component redundancy, (2) evaluate design trade-offs, and (3) help in design finalization. The procedure is applied to three diverse design options for a shutdown heat removal system (SHRS). The selected configuration is analyzed for potential common cause failures
