In the above manner, the shaping and mounting of the thermal section 31 in the heat conducting cavity 3 is achieved.
Wherein, the mounting plate 35 is provided with a plurality of through holes for circulating the heat-conducting medium in the cold sections 32 at two sides of the mounting plate 35, so that the heat-conducting medium in different spaces in the cold sections 32 separated by the mounting plate 35 can be mutually complemented. Meanwhile, no through hole is provided on the mounting plate 35, the cooling sections 32 at different positions are separated by the mounting plate 35 and are respectively connected with the independent cooling grooves 33 correspondingly (as shown in the figure, the cooling sections 32 are separated to be connected with the four cooling grooves 33 correspondingly), and at the moment, the heat conducting medium in the different cooling grooves 33 returns to the hot section 31 again through the corresponding cooling sections 32.
In this embodiment, the shapes of the heat conducting cavity 3 and the air cavity are not particularly limited, that is, the cross-sectional shapes of the heat conducting cavity 3 and the air cavity are not particularly limited, and may be square as shown in the figure, or may be circular according to actual requirements. Only the heat conduction cavity 3 is required to be ensured to be coated outside the containment vessel 1, and the air cavity is required to be coated on the surface of the heat conduction cavity 3. Likewise, the specific shape or cross-sectional shape of the hot section 31, the cold section 32 and the air flow passage is not limited, and it is only necessary to ensure that the hot section 31 is disposed at a position close to the surface of the containment vessel 1, the cold section 32 is disposed between the hot section 31 and the air flow passage, and the cold section 32 communicates with the hot section 31.

The workflow of the present embodiment:
When a large amount of heat is released into the containment vessel 1, the heat conducting medium located in the heat section 31 is heated and expanded, the density is reduced, the heat conducting medium in the heat section 31 (comprising the side wall section 311 and the top wall section 312) moves to the upper part of the heat conducting cavity 3 to overflow under the action of the density difference and gravity, and then flows into the cooling groove 33 and the upper part of the vertical section 321 of the cooling section 32 at the same time, the heat conducting medium in the cooling groove 33 enters the vertical section 321 after a part of the heat is released, meanwhile, the cold heat conducting medium in the vertical section 321 is acted by gravity, the part of the heat conducting medium which moves to the top of the heat conducting cavity 3 is complemented to move downwards, the heat is transferred to the surface of the heat conducting cavity 3 in the process to dissipate the heat, and finally, the heat conducting medium in the heat conducting cavity 3 forms natural circulation, so that the heat in the containment vessel 1 can be exported.
In the circulation process, external cold air enters through the air inlet 41 of the air cavity and is guided out through the air outlet 42 at the top, so that the heat on the surface of the heat conducting cavity 3, namely the heat in the cold section 32, is fully taken away, the cooling circulation is realized, and the heat in the containment vessel 1 is discharged to the atmosphere.
Wherein, the heat of the heat conducting medium in the cooling tank 33 is accumulated at the upper part of the heat conducting cavity 3, and then the air at the top of the heat conducting cavity 3 is heated, at this time, the air at the top of the heat conducting cavity 3 can be discharged through the air holes 34 at the top of the air cavity due to the air circulation of the external air cavity, and the hot heat conducting medium in the cooling tank 33 can dissipate a part of the heat in the above manner and then enter the vertical section 321. At this time, the heat conducting medium at the upper part of the vertical section 321 is the heat conducting medium of the heat section 31 and the heat conducting medium of the cooling tank 33 from which part of the heat is dissipated, and during the downward movement of the heat conducting medium at the upper part of the vertical section 321, the heat is carried away by the flow of the air in the air chamber and the sufficient contact with the surface of the heat conducting chamber 3, and finally flows to the lower part of the vertical section 321 and enters the heat section 31 again through the side wall section 311, and the heat conducting medium entering the heat section 31 again becomes the cooled heat conducting medium, and then continues to absorb the heat on the surface of the containment vessel 1.
The beneficial effects of this embodiment are:
Under the above structure setting, because the pressure in the heat conduction cavity 3 is normal pressure, and the heat conduction cavity 3 top is the air space, the difficulty in the aspects of installation, welding, manufacturing and maintenance brought by pipeline equipment due to the closed pressure-bearing structure is avoided. And when the heat conducting oil is used, the saturation temperature is higher, and the heat conducting oil is single-phase in the operation process, so that the instability of the two-phase natural circulation process is avoided, and the operation reliability of the system is improved. Meanwhile, the system of the invention does not depend on any external means (opening and closing the valve and supplementing water) for automatic operation, thereby improving the inherent safety of the system. In addition, the system does not need a penetrating piece of the containment vessel 1, and the integrity of the containment vessel 1 is ensured.
Embodiment four:

In the latter of the above modes, the air inlet may be provided at a position: the air inlet 41 of the air cavity is arranged at the bottom of the side surface of the air cavity; or the air inlet 41 of the air cavity is arranged at the top of the side surface of the air cavity, and an air flow passage corresponding to the air inlet 41 of the air cavity is arranged in the air cavity. When the air inlet is arranged at the bottom of the side surface of the air cavity, external air can directly enter the air cavity from the bottom and then be led out from the top, so that the air is ensured to be fully contacted with the surface of the heat conducting cavity 3, namely the surface of the cold section 32 when flowing, and heat dissipation is realized; when the air inlet 41 is arranged at the top of the air cavity, the air inlet can be more suitable for external air flow in the offshore environment, the external air flow can be better led in from the air inlet 41, the air flow channel can reduce the space for air flow, the air flow speed in the air cavity is improved, the heat is further accelerated to be taken away, and the heat dissipation speed is improved.

Wherein the first air flow channel 43 is arranged at one side of the air cavity close to the air inlet 41, and the second air flow channel 44 is arranged at one side of the air cavity close to the surface of the heat conducting cavity 3. After entering through the air inlet 41 at the top, the air is first accelerated through the first air flow channel 43, and the accelerated air rapidly flows in the second air flow channel 44, so that heat on the surface of the heat conducting cavity 3 is rapidly taken away, and finally flows out from the air outlet 42.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 2-3, the first air flow channel 43 is formed by a baffle 45, and one end of the baffle 45 is disposed on the inner wall of the air chamber. That is, in the figure, the cross section of the deflector 45 is in an inverted L shape, so that the air entering from the air inlet 41 can be guided to the bottom of the air chamber, and the air can naturally flow from the bottom to the top of the air chamber, and further, the air can contact with the surface of the heat conducting chamber 3 in the largest area, and the heat of the surface can be taken away.
