Abstract
A liquid metal cooled nuclear reactor incorporates a fully passive decay heat removal system with a modular cold source. The system which simultaneously ensure decay heat removal in a completely passive way from the moment an accident starts; heat removal through the primary vessel; and reduction in the risk of chemical interaction between sodium (or NaK) and the material acting as the final cold source. The presence of the final cold source provides an improvement over sodium/air or NaK/air exchangers that are used in the prior art.
