1. Background
1.2 About ACP100
• An Integrative type SMR, 125MWe, is being developed by CNNC (China National Nuclear Corporation).
• Large LOCAs (loss-of-coolant accidents) are physically impossible.
• On utilization of existing PWR technology and verified passive systems to cope with the consequences of accident events.
• Flexibility for different purposed application.
...
2.2 Reactor type & Technique route
• Adopt integrative layout instead of the traditional distributed layout. Eliminate large LOCA accident by design.
• Eliminate the technique risk to the most extent, by utilizing existing PWR technique storage and industry
foundation, and verified new techniques.
