My own idea for mitigation of a temporary Loss of Coolant Accident in an RBMK-1000/1500. The way it works is by taking water from the main circuit, mixing it from SAOR and heating SAOR water then discharging it back to RX. WATER EQUALIZATION ON.

    Update 8 Apr 3 4:11PM, changed more setpoints as necessary, replaced NBLE gas with hydrogen as hydrogen seems to provide better heat transfer, other small tweaks.

    This only simulates an auxiliary system. The water from the main circuit is labelled "RX".

    Update 7 2 Apr 26 03:24PM, changed some automated setpoints to increase the amount of heating applied to RX water, other general improvements.

    Update 6 29 Mar 26 4:25PM, added steam preheating system, other auxiliaries required and required logic for steam preheating. Eliminated odd high/low pressure zones outside of tanks where possible.

    No more updates until I find something I can improve on quickly and easily or an issue or known problem that must be fixed.

    Continuation of Update 5, nozzle spray design in KX and KS tanks improved.

    Update 5 11 Mar 26 4:02PM, changed the way MWAX cooling circuit works, now fully automated instead of a "dumb" circuit. Strengthened KSrz oil tank walls to prevent gas leak. Improved the way KX from RX tank water flows into KX. Any issues will be fixed tonight or early the next morning.

    Update 4 10 Mar 26 4:56PM CDT, made several changes to tank "KC" including proper oil cooldown system using water heat exchanger, marker "KCp3 H (level) <12" (KSrz) is for oil tank reservoir. Also restricted level of GLOW coolant interacting with MWAX system to avoid excess cooldown rates that, irl, would be undesirable. Added physical debris collection in the oil circuit for tank "KC".
