Abstract
A power module assembly may include a reactor vessel containing a primary coolant and one or more inlets configured to draw a secondary coolant from the containment cooling pool in response to a loss of power and/or a loss of coolant. One or more outlets may be submerged in the containment cooling pool and may be configured to vent the secondary coolant into the containment cooling pool. A heat exchanger may be configured to remove heat from the primary coolant, wherein the heat may be removed by circulating the secondary coolant from the containment cooling pool through the heat exchanger via natural circulation.
