Abstract
A safety injection device includes, a cooling water storage section accommodating cooling water injected into the reactor coolant system, a power producing section producing power with steam discharged from the reactor coolant system in case of an accident, a steam supply pipe transmitting steam discharged from the reactor coolant system to the power producing section, a steam discharge pipe discharging steam used to drive the power producing section and a safety injection line supplying cooling water accommodated in the cooling water storage section to the inside of the reactor coolant system. In addition, cooling water accommodated in the cooling water storage section is supplied to the inside of the reactor coolant system, based on the power produced by the power producing section, through a cooling water inlet pipe connecting the cooling water storage section and the power producing section.
