Earthquake response of a core shroud for APR1400

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2021
The core shroud is one of the most important internal components of the reactor vessel internals because it meets the neutron fluence directly emitted by the nuclear fuel.

Numerical Analysis for Hydrogen Flame Acceleration during a Severe Accident Initiated by SBLOCA in the APR1400 Containment

open access: yesHydrogen, 2022
We performed a hydrogen combustion analysis in the Advanced Power Reactor 1400 MWe (APR1400) containment during a severe accident initiated by a small break loss of coolant accident (SBLOCA) which occurred at a lower part of the cold leg using a multi ...

Physics study for high-performance and very-low-boron APR1400 core with 24-month cycle length

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2020
A 24-month Advanced Power Reactor 1400 (APR1400) core with a very-low-boron (VLB) concentration has been investigated for an inherently safe and high-performance PWR in this work.

Nuclear heat storage and recovery for the APR1400

open access: yesJournal of Energy Storage, 2020
Abstract Detailed here is the proposed design of the tertiary side of a Thermal Energy Storage (TES) System to be interfaced with the steam cycle of a Light Water Reactor (LWR) plant. This study extends the understanding provided by many previous investigations (i.e., beyond thermodynamic considerations) by specifically addressing real world ...

Extended Station Blackout Coping Capabilities of APR1400 [PDF]

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, 2014
The Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant accident shows that an extreme natural disaster can prevent the proper restoration of electric power for several days, so-called extended SBO.

Numerical Analysis for Hydrogen Flame Acceleration during a Severe Accident in the APR1400 Containment Using a Multi-Dimensional Hydrogen Analysis System

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) established a multi-dimensional hydrogen analysis system to evaluate hydrogen release, distribution, and combustion in the containment of a Nuclear Power Plant (NPP), using MAAP, GASFLOW, and COM3D.

Analysis of LBLOCA of APR1400 with 3D RPV model using TRACE

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2023
It is very difficult to capture the multi-dimensional phenomena such as asymmetric flow and temperature distributions with the one-dimensional (1D) model, obviously, due to its inherent limitation.

Modeling corium pool stratification and focusing effect in APR1400 using a multiphase CFD framework [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Accurately predicting molten corium behavior is critical for assessing severe accident scenarios in nuclear reactors, particularly under In-Vessel Corium Retention with Reactor Vessel External Cooling (IVCR-RVEC) strategies.
