Abstract
Two new passive safety systems for a demonstration nuclear heating pla nt, the residual heat removal system (RHRS) and the boron injection sy stem (BIS), are introduced in this paper. Their common characteristic is that they have no driving equipment, therefore fluid circulation de pends only on gravity (in BIS) or natural circulation (in RHRS). The i nherent safety and realizability of both systems are illustrated in th is paper.
