Abstract
A nuclear reactor cooling system in which the cooling system for cooling a fuel element well is combined with the after-cooling system used at shutdown, and the emergency cooling system resulting in a substantial reduction in the number of cooling system elements required thereby reducing the overall cost of the cooling system. The fuel element well contains an excess of coolant which may then be used, in case of a break in the primary cooling circuit to supply emergency coolant to the reactor. In addition the pump and some of the lines of the fuel well cooling system are shared with the after cooling system resulting in a further reduction of components.
