Popis: A lead-based reactor with employing heat pipes as passive residual heat removal system (PRHRS) for longterm decay heat removal was designed. Three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software FLUENT was adopted to simulate the thermal-hydraulic characteristics of the PRHRS under Station-Black-Out (SBO) accident condition. The results showed that heat in the core could be removed smoothly by the PRHRS, and the core temperature difference is less than 20 K.
