Dual Loop Pressurized Water Reactor by dornog70
A Uranium Fueled 2 Loop Pressurized Water Reactor with 3 buildings that simulates all 3 loops somewhat realistically, along with auxilary and safety equipment. Ideal core temperature band 300-370C. Best viewed in fire display.

you can think of it as like standby cooling, you should be using the steam generators and the RHR to cooldown the reactor core when shutting down. -
dornog70 26th Nov 2025however if your heat exchangers clog and you still desire to continue using it, you just need to remove the salt from them and wait for it to cool down
-
dornog70 26th Nov 2025its not intended to be used while the reactor is running and hot
-
dornog70 26th Nov 2025RHR is to be used for when the reactor is shutdown and like not at 350C or however high your operating it at. I would start it at around 100-250C, otherwise the cooling water will boil and clog the heat exchanger as you described.

is it normal for RHR to effectively permanently fail if used at high temps? because you used saltwater when it gets too hot it boils blocking the RHR with salt -
dornog70 26th Nov 2025np, lmk what you would like to see and ill prob add it. next to be done is better and possibly more redundant ECCS

Thank you for updating this! -
dornog70 25th Nov 2025you can manually operate both of these
-
dornog70 25th Nov 2025ok so, auxilliary feedwater revamp, it will autostart currently only on a reactor trip, there is also main steam isolation which will automatically isolate on LOCA signals

dornog70 23rd Nov 2025bruh published this while forgetting to put fuel into the reactor core.. whooops
