Passive Safety Systems in Advanced PWRs

摘要

Passive safety systems have been widely applied to advanced water-cooled reactors (WCRs), to enhance the safety of nuclear power plants. For the near term and medium term, the Chinese government decided for advanced pressurized water reactors with an extensive usage of passive safety systems. The International Workshop on Passive Safety Systems of Advanced PWR (IPASS'08) was held in Shanghai on April 28-30,2008, coorganized by the Shanghai Jiao Tong University and the Pisa University. The main purposes of the Workshop IPASS'08 are (a) to provide a platform to the international nuclear community for exchanging research results and design experience on passive safety systems applied to advanced WCR and (b) to enhance the contact and collaboration between the Chinese research institutions and international partners.
