When a pipe of tokamak cooling system breaks outside of vacuum vessel, it is necessary to keep integrity of buildings to prevent that tritium and ACP contained in coolant are released to environment. A load to buildings is affected by plant design parameters, for example mass of coolant, pipe diameter and volume of buildings. The impacts of these parameters on the load to buildings are shown based on thermal hydraulic analyses.
