ABSTRACT:
A nuclear power plant with a gas cooled high temperature reactor, installed in a prestressed concrete pressure vessel with the operational and decay heat removal systems. The prestressed concrete pressure vessel has a thermal protection system, with a thermal insulating layer and a liner cooling system. The liner cooling system, which is includes water carrying cooling pipes, which along with intermediate heat exchangers and cooling water pumps make up a closed intermediate cooling loop used for removal of the decay heat in case a failure of the decay heat removal systems. The elements of the invention assure an adequate water flow for the removal of decay heat in the liner cooling system in any situation, i.e. such that the decay heat may also be removed by natural convection. These element insure a sufficient driving pressure differences and minimize pressure losses in the intermediate cooling loop.
