Sensitivity Studies of Modular High-Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor (MHTGR) Postulated Accidents

Syd Bali1

Abstract: The results of various accident scenario simulations for the two major Modular High Temperaturę Gas-cooled Reactor (MHTGR) variants (prismatic and pebble-bed cores) are presented. Sensitivity studies attempt to account for uncertainty ranges in some of the morę crucial system parameters as well as for occurrences of eąuipment and/or operator failures or errors. Both of the MHTGR designs studied - the 400-MW(t) Pebble Bed Modular Reactor (pebble) and the 600-MW(t) Gas-Turbine Modular Helium Reactor (prismatic) - show excellent accident prevention and mitigation capabilities because of their inherent passive safety features. The large thermal margins between operating and “potential damage” temperatures, along with the typically very slow accident response times (~days to peak), significantly reduce concerns about uncertainties in the models, the initiating events, and the eąuipment and operator responses.
