Study of thorium advanced fuel cycle utilization in light water reactor VVER-440
The first step in investigation of thorium fuel is evaluation of the results obtained from the spectral code for this type of fuel. The benchmark summarized by IAEA in 2003 was used for partial validation of the code HELIOS 1.9. The benchmark was focused on a comparison of the methods and basic nuclear data. Acceptable results of benchmark comparison allowed examining and comparing different ad...
متن کاملCfd Study on Coolant Mixing in Vver-440 Fuel Rod Bundles and Fuel Assembly Heads
A CFD model of VVER-440 fuel assembly heads was developed based on the technical documentation of a full-scale test facility built in the Kurchatov Institute, Moscow. Steady-state and transient calculations were performed to validate the model with a measurement set and investigate the effects of the spatial discretization, choosing of different turbulence models and use of different inlet boun...
متن کاملEddy Current Inspection of Cladding Material on Vver 440 Reactor Pressure Vessels
Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) is classified as a safety related component and continued operation of the NPP for an additional fuel cycle is contingent upon the Nuclear Regulator approving the in-service inspection (ISI) performance. In accordance with applicable Finish regulative the integrity of cladding material on reactor pressure vessel is part of the interest and has to be included in exa...
متن کاملInspection and Replacement of Baffle Former Bolts in VVER-440 Reactor Type
Reactor vessel internals are structures located within the reactor vessel that support and orient the reactor fuel assemblies and direct coolant flow through the core. The core basket is part of the internals structure, which consists of vertical plates that surround the outer faces of the hexagonal peripheral fuel assemblies. The vertical plates are bolted to the edges of horizontal former pla...
متن کاملEvaluation of Single Failure Effects During Loss of Coolant Accidents For A VVER-440 Reactor
This paper describes the results of an analysis of loss of coolant accidents (LOCA's) for the Soviet designed, light water cooled and moderated reactors referred to as VVERs. The VVER unit selected for this analysis is designated as VvER-440 Model 213. This plant generates 440 Mwe and is of current interest since meen are now operating and additional units are in various stages of construction ...
