In the ESBWR, the use of natural circulation has allowed the elimination of recirculation pumps. The use of chimney enhances the driving head for natural circulation flow. The use of shorter fuel results in a reduced core pressure drop. The control rods can be inserted either by hydraulically or electrically. Electronic fine movement control permits small power changes, improves power maneuvering and provides a high degree of assurance of rod insertion. Large vessel provides large water inventory, makes sure the water level always covers the core following an accident. The Passive Containment Cooling System (PCCS) provides containment decay heat removal. The low pressure inventory control system梩he Gravity Driven Cooling System (GDCS) can provide low pressure makeup water flows into the vessel by gravity. The isolation 自condenser system can transfer decay and residual heat from the reactor during and following transient events. All the features above result in a substantial enhancement of the overall plant performance with sufficient safety margins. Besides, 13 features are involved for severe accidents prevention and mitigation.
