| description | In a high-temperature gas-cooled nuclear reactor system, which is suitable for modular utilization in combination with one or more other similar nuclear reactor systems, an arrangement which comprises passive heat sink means for absorbing decay heat energy generated at a reactor core included within said reactor system; and means for removing heat energy from said heat sink means at a rate sufficient to maintain the capacity of the heat sink means for absorption of decay heat energy such that release of fission products resulting from loss of forced circulation of gas coolant, or such loss in combination with coolant depressurization, when the reactor is critical and at power is prevented, thereby to provide safety means independent of human or automatic activation; and method embodiments corresponding to same. |
