PREDICTION OF AP1000’S NUCLEAR REACTOR PRESSURE VESSEL TEMPERATURE DURING NORMAL OPERATION

open access: yesJURNAL TEKNOLOGI REAKTOR NUKLIR TRI DASA MEGA, 2022
Modeling of thermal-hydraulic calculations for the AP1000 core to predict the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) temperature has been carried out. The reactor’s primary coolant system transfers the heat produced in the reactor fuel during reactor operation to the steam generator.

Optimization and performance of metafoundations for seismic isolation of small modular reactors

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 38, Issue 12, Page 1558-1582, August 2023., 2023
Abstract This paper aims to study the seismic mitigation of a typical nuclear small modular reactor (SMR) where extreme loading conditions are considered by the safe shutdown earthquake. For this purpose, to reproduce the main dynamic properties of the reactor's reinforced concrete system, a detailed structural model was synthetized, also taking into ...

Numerical Evaluation of Coolability Limits of External Reactor Vessel Cooling Using an Improved Thermal‐Hydraulic System Analysis Code

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
The external reactor vessel cooling provides a means to stabilize the molten core inside the reactor vessel during the severe accident in nuclear power plants. For a credible evaluation of the chances of success of in‐vessel melt retention, one requires high‐fidelity predictions on the natural circulation flow around the reactor vessel and, in ...

Stress and Strain State Analysis of Crack Front in Dissimilar Metal Welded Joints with Dual Field of Mechanical Heterogeneity and Residual Stress

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
The micro‐mechanical state at the crack front is one of the key factors affecting the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) growth behavior. The mechanical heterogeneity and residual stress in the dissimilar metal welded joint (DMWJ) induce the micro‐mechanical state at the crack front to become more complex.

Fault Diagnosis to Nuclear Power Plant System Based on Time‐Series Convolution Neural Network

open access: yesWireless Communications and Mobile Computing, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Nuclear power plant (NPP) is a highly complex engineering system which has typical internal feedback and strong component coupling. With these features, most NPP systems have high risk of radioactive release, which makes it essential to perform fault detection (FD) to the NPP systems.

Experimental Research for CHF Sensitivity of Heat Flux Distribution under IVR Conditions

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
In‐vessel retention (IVR) through external reactor vessel cooling (ERVC) is one of the most effective severe accident mitigation measures in the nuclear power plants. The most influential issues on the IVR strategy are in‐vessel core melt evolution, the heat fluxes imposed on the lower head, and the external cooling of reactor pressurized vessel (RPV).
