Auxiliary feedwater
Auxiliary feedwater is a backup water supply system found in pressurized water reactor nuclear power plants (PWRs). This system, sometimes known as emergency feedwater, can be used to shut down the reactor, if normal feedwater to the steam generators fails to work. It works by pumping water to the steam generators from reserve tanks or a larger body of water (e.g. lake, river, or ocean) to remove decay heat from the reactor. PWRs are often equipped with motor driven aux feedwater systems (MDAFWs), and, as an additional measure, turbine driven aux feedwater systems (TDAFWs) that are driven not by electricity but by steam from the normal secondary side steam circuit of the plant. In contrast to emergency core cooling systems for loss-of-coolant accidents, the auxiliary feedwater system does
