Abstract:
A reactor shutdown system includes a reactor, a control-rod drive unit that can drive a control rod in pulling and inserting directions with respect to a fuel assembly, a power source that can supply power to the control-rod drive unit, and a power converter that is provided between the control-rod drive unit and the power source, in which when power supply is cut off, the control-rod drive unit inserts the control rod into the fuel assembly to stop nuclear reaction in the reactor, and the reactor shutdown system includes a reactor trip breaker provided between the power converter and the control-rod drive unit, a safety protection-system device that controls the reactor trip breaker to cut off power supply to the control-rod drive unit, and a CCF device that controls the power converter to cut off power supply to the control-rod drive unit.
