The safety analyses were carried out to confirm the sufficiency of the function of the plant protection system against the pump/diagrid link rupture, which is a candidate of the design basis event in pool type SFR. Sensitivity has been studied for the parameters which are thought significantly to affect the detection of the pump/diagrid link rupture, such as initial reactor power (at rated and 30% power operation), reactivity feedbacks and so forth. The sufficiency of the function was confirmed by the analysis results that at least two signals are transmitted for the detection of the pump/diagrid link rupture, which is the development target of the plant protection system in pool type SFR.
