My own idea for prevention 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 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".
-
Update 3 9 Mar 26 8:56PM CDT, made several changes to the way water is injected or sprayed, added more cooldown systems for auxiliaries, removed known issue where the MWAX cooling solution flash-ignites due to contact with structures above its flash temperature. Added oil-water heat exchanger (TEPLO) to tank KC cooling system. Changed MWAX cooling system's operation slightly. Other tweaks.
-
Update 2 9 Mar 26 5:30AM CDT, added "Technical Water" loop to cool the MWAX preheating solution, added forced mixing system in tank "KC" using PUMP. Added impact nipples (yes that is the proper term) to prevent backflow during forced mixing in tank "KC". Tweaked PRTI/PRTO system to ensure constant flow through "Technical Water" loop.

Update 1, improved drain from structure "KS" back into primary circuit
