Safety analysis for operating power generating units at the same time occurring beyond design basis accidents is carried out in accordance with the requirements of NP-001-15. Computational studies were performed with the SOCRAT-BN, ANSYS, ORIGEN2, and VIBROS 2.2 codes. There are considered beyond design basis accidents caused by seismic impact with intensity of 7 points on MSK-64 scale (exceeding the maximum allowed earthquake (MAE) for the site of power unit No. 3 and the corresponding MAE for the site of power unit No. 4). As a result of seismic impact at all the power generating units of the BNPP, a loss of system power supply occurs, which, together with additional failures of the main equipment, leads to beyond design basis accidents. The paper presents the results of computational studies of beyond design basis accidents in terms of reactor plant, assembly cooling pond and holding pond and radiation effects assessment. The results of a computation analysis of the beyond design basis accident showed that the release of radioactivity occurs only for the BN-600 reactor facility (where are breaking of the fuel elements cladding). At the same time, the predicted radiation doses for the first years after the accident are lower than the NRB-99/2009 criteria for making a decision on the evacuation and resettlement of inhabitants.","PeriodicalId":20426,"journal":{"name":"PROBLEMS OF ATOMIC SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY.

The paper presents a methodology for calculating the methodical error. It is assumed that the water temperature between the sensor and the surface of the fuel assembly is determined by convective heat transfer between the fuel assembly and the water in cooling pool at nuclear power plant. The surface of VVER-1000 fuel assemblies is modeled by a flat vertical plate with a uniform surface heat flux. The propagation of an ultrasonic wave in a medium between the surface of a fuel assembly and an ultrasonic sensor is described in the approximation of geometric acoustics. The results of numerical calculations according to the presented method are executed in the form of nomograms.

When designing steam generators, a very important task is to correctly calculate the output parameters of the steam generator, especially the power. For the plants without reference solutions it is necessary to perform a deep analysis of the factors affecting on calculated parameters and to incorporate these parameters in the codes. An example of a new plant that do not have analogues is a shell-type steam generator for perspective fast neutron plants with liquid metal sodium coolant. The application of new solutions in steam generators design requires experimental and calculational justification of thermal hydraulic with the use of modern calculation codes. Power calculation of steam generator is carried out by thermohydraulic code “KORSAR/GP”, “PGN-2K”. One of the assumptions in coolant path parameters calculation model (tube space) is a uniform velocity profile by cross-section of tube assembly. It’s also accepted, that each heat exchange tube has the same expense of feed water. On the other hand calculational CFD and experimental studies at aerodynamic model of steam generator showed the presence of significant unevenness of coolant expense by tube space cross-section which is not taken into account in thermohydraulic calculations. The article contains the methodic of accounting for the known uneven coolant flow profile by tube space cross-section in liquid metal steam generator calculation. Based on the results obtained, measures to improve power output and reliability are proposed.","PeriodicalId":20426,"journal":{"name":"PROBLEMS OF ATOMIC SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY.

Its function is local measurement of gaseous fission product activity in the coolant and the most defected fuel assembly localization.

In the barbotage channel of gas-lift probe gaseous fission products diffuse through the bubble interface surface into the volume of the bubbles. The bubbles deliver gaseous fission product to interface surface in the separation volume. The gas enriched with radioactive gaseous fission product goes to measurement volume of the probe. The more significant the damage and the closer the defective fuel assembly is located to the probe input, the more gaseous fission product activity will be registered. The paper presents a model of gaseous activity transfer from cladding defect to probe measuring volume. The gaseous activity transfer is described on the basis of the inert gases dissolution/degassing processes in lead. The gas-lift probe sensitivity was estimated as the ratio of the entry velocity of gaseous activity into the measurement volume to the exit one into the coolant through fuel assemblies cladding defects.

Currently, the most widespread are deterministic (method of discrete ordinates) and stochastic computational methods for evaluating functionals. At large attenuations of the neutron flux (by 5-15 orders of magnitude) the deep penetration problems require large computational costs. The most accurate simulation of radiation transfer is achieved by using precision programs that implement the Monte Carlo method with a continuous energy dependence of the cross sections. A detailed description of the geometry and the use of continuous cross sections for particle interactions in calculations lead to high computational costs. To improve computational efficiency, there are variance reduction techniques (non-analog modeling). In this paper the possibility of using non-analog modeling in MCU-FR program by calculating the protection of the fast reactor full-scale model with a lead coolant is considered. The volume-integral neutron fluxes were estimated at points located in a long distance from the center of the reactor core.

During the experiments, the multiplication factors and decay constant of the prompt neutrons were determined at a fixed gap between MS parts and different MS temperatures. Values of MS critical gap at different MS temperatures were established experimentally. The change in MS reactivity is initiated by energy release under the plutonium isotopes alpha-decay.

The loss of water due to drop entrainment with steam-air mixture flow into the atmosphere stops when the velocity of drop sedimentation becomes higher than the velocity of drop entrainment with the mixture flow. The jet-vortex condenser model integrated into the KUPOL-M code was validated against the experimental data obtained on the VNIIAES test facility. To take into account drop entrainment with steam-air mixture flow the procedure of moisture separation and drop entrainment was used. A good agreement between calculated and experimental results was obtained when comparing the initial and final water levels in the hydraulic lock.
