Natural circulation scaling of a pressurized conduction cooldown event in the upper plenum of the modular high temperature gas reactor

Natural circulation scaling of a pressurized conduction cooldown event in the upper plenum of the modular high temperature gas reactor

In a Modular High Temperature Gas Reactor (MHGTR), the Pressurized Conduction Cooldown (PCC) event is an accident scenario in which there is a loss of forced convection of the coolant through the system but the pressure boundary remains intact. When the PCC event occurs, natural circulation onsets...
