Disclosed herein is a water-air combined passive feed water cooling apparatus including a water cooling heat exchanger connected to the inside of a containment building to cool down heat of a steam generator using a water cooling method, a cooling tank including the water cooling heat exchanger therein and storing cooling water condensing main steam generated by the steam generator, an evaporative steam pipe connected to the cooling tank, the evaporative steam pipe, into which steam of the cooling water generated by the water cooling heat exchanger in the cooling tank flows, an air cooling heat exchanger connected to the evaporative steam pipe and cooling down and liquefying the steam flowing into the evaporative steam pipe, and a condensed water collecting pipe for refilling the cooling tank with the steam liquefied by the air cooling heat exchanger.

Water-air combined passive feed water cooling apparatus and system

Provided is a passive containment air cooling device with an isolated pressure boundary, including a heat exchanger positioned inside and outside a containment, penetrating through an outer wall of the containment to be connected to the containment through a pipe and thus form a closed loop, and including a coolant, an air induction duct circulating air outside the heat exchanger, and a cooled air exhaust unit formed in the air induction duct to increase cooling efficiency of the heat exchanger.
