This report deals with the "practical elimination" approach of situations considered to be unacceptable, that might lead to major early radioactive releases into the environment, specifically as regards the complete and timely unlimited failure of the DHR (Decay Heat Removal) function for the ESFR (European Sodium Fast Reactor). The practical elimination of this situation is addressed via a demonstration showing that the associated risk becomes negligible and the probabilistic safety goals are met.

Abstract
This report deals with the "practical elimination" approach of situations considered to be unacceptable, that might lead to major early radioactive releases into the environment, specifically as regards the complete and timely unlimited failure of the DHR (Decay Heat Removal) function for the ESFR (European Sodium Fast Reactor). The practical elimination of this situation is addressed via a demonstration showing that the associated risk becomes negligible and the probabilistic safety goals are met.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
