ANALYSIS OF MODIFIED PASSIVE SAFETY SYSTEM IN FAST RECTORS TRANSIENTS
The Autonomous Reactivity Control (ARC) system is a passive safety system aiming to provide an additional negative reactivity feedback during reactor transient scenarios. This paper shows how the performance of the ARC system can be enhanced by introducing a hydraulic diode that allows for different...
