Improvement of aseismic performance of a PGSFR PHTS pump

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2020
Abstract A design study was performed to improve the limit aseismic performance (LSP) of a primary heat transport system (PHTS) pump. This pump is part of the primary equipment of a prototype generation IV sodium-cooled fast reactor (PGSFR). The LSP is the maximum allowable seismic load that still ensures structural integrity. To calculate the LSP of
