Mitigating of molten corium in severe accidents is a vital concern in safety of Nuclear Power.

Plants (NPPs). As one of the main features, core catcher is provisioned in the design of NPPs. In order to appropriately design an ex-vessel core catcher, numerous core damage (CD) sequences with vessel breach are required to be studied and analyzed, which requires massive efforts. Therefore, this study intends to develop a comprehensive hybrid method, to extract a logical number of CD sequences with bounding thermal hydraulic parameter for core catcher design. Such method interprets the result of Level 2 Probabilistic Safety Analyss (PSA), from both the probabilistic and deterministic perspectives. For this analysis, high pressure, high-temperature massive melt volumes are considered as core catcher bounding parameters. Moreover, a multi-level qualitative and quantitative screenings is accomplished on the list of Plant Damage States (PDSs), to screen the candidate CD sequence(s) with vessel breach. The thermal hydraulic parameters of the screened CD sequences are subsequently studied using MELCOR code, to conclude with the final list of worst sequences, regarding the core catcher design. This study is applied for IR-360 NPP as a case study. In the worst case scenario, the core catcher shall handle a CD sequence with pressure about pressurizer safety valve set point, temperature of 2500 K and corium of 82 tones. According to the results, among the entire CD sequences, a Large Break Loss of Coolant Accident (LB-LOCA) and Loss of Offsite Power (LOOP), induced CD sequence are identified as the most severe sequences for the core catcher design.

使用组合概率和确定性方法对堆芯捕集器设计的 PSA 级别 2 进行评估,用于案例研究:IR-360 NPP

减轻严重事故中的熔融钴是核电安全的一个重要问题。

植物(NPP)。作为主要特征之一,核电厂设计中配备了堆芯捕集器。为了适当地设计一个船外取芯器,需要研究和分析大量具有船舶破裂的岩心损坏(CD)序列,这需要付出巨大的努力。因此,本研究打算开发一种综合的混合方法,提取具有边界热工水力参数的 CD 序列的逻辑数量,用于岩心捕集器设计。这种方法从概率和确定性的角度解释了 2 级概率安全分析 (PSA) 的结果。对于该分析,高压、高温大量熔体体积被视为核心捕集器边界参数。此外,在植物损害状态 (PDS) 列表上完成了多层次的定性和定量筛选,筛选具有血管破裂的候选 CD 序列。随后使用 MELCOR 代码研究筛选出的 CD 序列的热工水力参数,以得出关于取芯器设计的最差序列的最终列表。本研究作为案例研究应用于 IR-360 核电厂。在最坏的情况下,取芯器应处理压力约为加压器安全阀设定点、温度为 2500 K 和 82 吨硬质合金的 CD 序列。根据结果​​,在整个 CD 序列中,冷却液大断裂事故 (LB-LOCA) 和异地功率损失 (LOOP),诱导 CD 序列被确定为堆芯捕集器设计中最严重的序列。随后使用 MELCOR 代码研究筛选出的 CD 序列的热工水力参数,以得出关于取芯器设计的最差序列的最终列表。本研究作为案例研究应用于 IR-360 核电厂。在最坏的情况下,取芯器应处理压力约为加压器安全阀设定点、温度为 2500 K 和 82 吨硬质合金的 CD 序列。根据结果​​,在整个 CD 序列中,冷却液大断裂事故 (LB-LOCA) 和异地功率损失 (LOOP),诱导 CD 序列被确定为堆芯捕集器设计中最严重的序列。随后使用 MELCOR 代码研究筛选出的 CD 序列的热工水力参数,以得出关于取芯器设计的最差序列的最终列表。本研究作为案例研究应用于 IR-360 核电厂。在最坏的情况下,取芯器应处理压力约为加压器安全阀设定点、温度为 2500 K 和 82 吨硬质合金的 CD 序列。根据结果​​,在整个 CD 序列中,冷却液大断裂事故 (LB-LOCA) 和异地功率损失 (LOOP),诱导 CD 序列被确定为堆芯捕集器设计中最严重的序列。取芯器应处理一个 CD 序列,压力大约为增压器安全阀设定点,温度为 2500 K,钴为 82 吨。根据结果​​,在整个 CD 序列中,冷却液大断裂事故 (LB-LOCA) 和异地功率损失 (LOOP),诱导 CD 序列被确定为堆芯捕集器设计中最严重的序列。取芯器应处理一个 CD 序列,压力约为增压器安全阀设定点,温度为 2500 K,钴为 82 吨。根据结果​​,在整个 CD 序列中,冷却液大断裂事故 (LB-LOCA) 和异地功率损失 (LOOP),诱导 CD 序列被确定为堆芯捕集器设计中最严重的序列。
