Abstract: Disclosed herein is a nuclear power plant main steam system that reduces the atmospheric discharge of radioactive materials generated in an accident. The system includes: a decontamination water tank containing decontamination water; and a connection pipe for connecting the decontamination water tank to a main steam pipe which connects a steam generator and a turbine. A main steam safety valve or a connection valve is provided as a three-way valve configured to discharge the generated steam to the atmosphere when an accident occurs within a design basis and to transfer the generated steam to the decontamination water tank when an accident involving damage to nuclear fuel occurs. The main steam system reduces discharge of radioactive materials to the atmosphere when a containment bypass accident (e.g., a steam generator tube rupture caused by high-temperature steam) occurs.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a nuclear power plant main steam system, which reduces the atmospheric discharge of radioactive materials generated in an accident, the system including: a decontamination water tank containing decontamination water; and a connection pipe for connecting the decontamination water tank from a main steam pipe which connects a steam generator and a turbine, wherein the connection pipe is connected to the decontamination water tank through a main steam safety valve or a connection valve, wherein the main steam safety valve or the connection valve is configured by a three-way valve and is configured to discharge the generated steam to the air when an accident occurs within a design basis and to transfer the generated steam to the decontamination water tank when a severe accident occurs. A main steam system according to the present invention has an effect of reducing discharge of radioactive materials to the air when a containment bypass accident including a steam generator tube rupture caused by high-temperature steam occurs.
