Abstract:
Provided are a nuclear reactor shut-down system and a nuclear reactor shut-down method for emergency shut-down, the system and method being applicable to small nuclear reactors while maintaining safety and rapidity. This nuclear reactor shut-down system comprises: a shielded passage which passes between reactor core fuel stored in a hermetically sealed state in a nuclear reactor vessel, and which has one end portion open and another end portion closed; a neutron absorber capable of entering from the opening of the shielded passage; a resilient member which urges the neutron absorber from the opening of the shielded passage in a direction entering the interior thereof by being released from a compressed state; and a braking unit which is disposed so as to maintain the compressed state of the resilient member and which releases the compressed state of the resilient member if a threshold temperature is reached or exceeded.
