1. A nuclear plant comprising:
a core,
a reactor pressure vessel containing the core,
a containment vessel including:
a dry well containing the reactor pressure vessel,
a wet well containing a suppression pool in a lower part thereof, and a wet well gas phase in an upper part thereof,
a LOCA vent pipe connecting the dry well and the suppression pool
a vacuum breaker that circulates gas in the wet well gas phase to the dry well, and
a pedestal that supports the reactor pressure vessel in the containment vessel via an RPV skirt and forms a pedestal cavity inside,
an outer well that is arranged outside the dry well and the wet well, adjoins the dry well via a dry well common part wall, adjoins the wet well via a wet well common part wall, surrounds completely the dry well common part wall and the wet well common part wall, and has pressure resistance and gastightness equivalent to pressure resistance and gastightness of the dry well and the wet well,
a passive containment cooling system including:
a scrubbing pool that is arranged in the outer well and stores water inside;
a cooling water pool that is installed above the dry well and the outer well and reserves cooling water;
a heat exchanger that has an inlet plenum, an outlet plenum, and a heat exchanger tube, and is submerged at least in part in the cooling water;
a wet well gas supply pipe that is connected to the inlet plenum of the heat exchanger at one end and connected to the wet well gas phase at the other end to lead a gas in the wet well gas phase to the heat exchanger;
a condensate return pipe that is connected to the outlet plenum of the heat exchanger at one end, passes through the outer well, and is connected to inside the containment vessel at the other end to lead condensate in the heat exchanger into the containment vessel; and
a gas vent pipe that is connected to the outlet plenum of the heat exchanger at one end, passes through the outer well, has the other end installed as submerged in the water in the scrubbing pool in the outer well, and releases noncondensable gas in the heat exchanger to the outer well, and
an in-Containment Atmosphere Dilution System including:
a ventilation means;
an intake pipe that is connected to the ventilation means at one end and opened to inside the outer well at the other end; and
an outlet pipe that is connected to the ventilation means at one end and opened to inside the containment vessel at the other end, wherein the ventilation means is configured to transfer a gas from the outer well into the containment vessel via the intake pipe and the outlet pipe.
