Principles of structuring the safety systems

According to the defense-in-depth concept the safety systems are provided in the design that are intended for fulfillment of the following safetyfunctions.

Safety systems and their components provide for fulfilling the assigned functions under all external impacts considered in the design.

Safety functions

- emergency reactor trip and keeping the reactor in the subcritical state;

- emergency heat removal from the reactor and from the spent fuel pool;

- confining the radioactive substances within the established limits;

- keeping the integrity of the reactor pressure boundary.

Project of the nuclear science Сenter.

Vietnamese children took part in the international project “Nuckids” organized by the State Atomic Energy Corporation ROSATOM. Premiere of the project was held in Hanoi in 2011.

In December 2012 the State Atomic Energy Corporation ROSATOM opened the Information Centre of nuclear energy at the Polytechnic University of Hanoi.
