Abstract

The present invention discloses a passive cooling system of a containment building, to which a plate-type heat exchanger is applied. A passive cooling system of a containment building comprises: a containment building; a plate-type heat exchanger provided to at least one of the inside and the outside of the containment building and comprising channels respectively provided to the both sides of a plate so as to be arranged dividedly from each other such that the plate-type heat exchanger carries out mutual heat exchange between the internal atmosphere of the containment building and a heat exchange fluid while maintaining a pressure boundary; and a pipe connected to the plate-type heat exchanger by penetrating the containment building so as to form the path of the internal atmosphere of the containment building or the heat exchange fluid.
