Residual heat removal using a passive cooling system
This study investigates the thermal-hydraulic performance of a passive Reactor Cavity Cooling System (RCCS) designed for a 250 MW molten salt reactor. The analysis focuses on the feasibility of natural convection-driven cooling as a passive safety mechanism. Simulations were performed using MATLAB and validated with COMSOL to evaluate the system under varying pipe configurations, diameters, and ou
