Abstract
A nuclear reactor cooling system comprises a containment area, an In-Containment Refueling Water Storage Tank (IRWST), and a discharge pipe. The containment area is formed to enclose a reactor coolant system. The IRWST is disposed outside the containment area. The discharge pipe discharges steam from the containment area to refueling water in the IRWST when an accident occurs. A steam intake pipe has one end in fluid connection with an upper space of the IRWST, and another end in fluid connection with a radioactive substance reduction tank which stores cooling water. The steam intake pipe allows steam to flow from the upper space of the IRWST into the cooling water in the reduction tank.
