The present invention relates to an integrated nuclear reactor system including a double containment structure using liquid nitrogen, the nuclear reactor system comprising: a reactor vessel; a reactor core disposed in the reactor vessel; a steam generator disposed in the reactor vessel and located above the reactor core; a first containment vessel surrounding the reactor vessel with a first space interposed therebetween; a second containment vessel surrounding the first containment vessel with a second space interposed therebetween; and a liquid nitrogen supply unit supplying liquid nitrogen into the second space.

An entrainment-reducing assembly may include a container configured to hold a liquid. A venting arrangement may extend into an upper portion of the container and be configured to direct condensable and non-condensable gases into the container. A suction structure may extend into a lower portion of the container and be configured to carry out an extraction of excess liquid from the container caused by condensed gases. A deflector may be disposed between the suction structure and the venting arrangement within the container. As a result, an entrainment of uncondensed gases during the extraction of the liquid by the suction structure may be reduced or prevented, thereby protecting the pump from cavitation and failure.

The purpose of the present invention is to prevent a nuclear reactor building from being pressurized and heated again when the nuclear reactor building is cooled in the event of a severe accident. The present invention comprises: a reservoir tank in which cooling water is stored; a partition part which is disposed in the reservoir tank and partitions the inside of the reservoir tank into a first storage tank and a second storage tank so as to separate the cooling water in the reservoir tank; and an inflow part which is disposed in the partition part and allows the cooling water of the second storage tank to naturally flow into the first storage tank by the difference between the water levels of the first and second storage tanks when the water level of the first storage tank is lowered.

An object of the present invention is to provide a cooling water storage reservoir capable of passive cooling a reactor containment building in order to prevent the reactor containment building from being re-pressurized and reheated in the event of a serious accident. The cooling water storage reservoir comprises: a storage tank forming a first storage space in which cooling water is stored; a compartment tank disposed inside the storage tank and forming a second storage space separated from the first storage space; and an inlet which is provided in the compartment tank and allows the cooling water in the first storage space to naturally flow into the second storage space when the water level in the second storage space decreases.

In order to provide a coolant tank for preventing a containment from being recompressed and reheated during the cooling of the containment upon occurrence of a design basis accident and a severe accident and a passive containment cooling system comprising the same, the present invention comprises: a storage tank for storing a coolant; a division part which is arranged within the storage tank and divides the inside of the storage tank into a first storage tank and a second storage tank to separate the coolant; a first heat exchanger which is extended from the storage tank to the containment and cools the containment on the basis of the coolant; and a unidirectional valve which is provided on the division part and allows the coolant of the second storage tank to be introduced into the first storage tank when the water level of the first storage tank is reduced.
