The IAEA coordinated research project on modular HTGR safety design; Status and outlook

Reitsma, F.*; Kunitomi, Kazuhiko ; Ohashi, Hirofumi

The IAEA Coordinated Research Project (CRP) on Modular High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor (HTGR) Safety Design started in December 2014 and is now in its second year of implementation. The project investigates and makes proposals on safety design criteria by not only considering the existing water cooled reactors safety requirements for nuclear power plant design but also making use of past and current experience of HTGR licensing in the IAEA member states including Japan. The detailed project content and a description of modular HTGRs and its safety features are given. This informs the comments made on the applicability of the existing requirements and the examples of newly proposed HTGR specific safety requirements under development.
