Abstract

Alternate alternating current (AAC) is used in nuclear power plants (NPPs) in order to cope with station black outs (SBOs). AAC has been provided using diesel engine drive types in Korea's NPPs. The structure of gas turbine generators (GTGs) is simpler than that of diesel generators (DGs), and GTGs have the advantage of longer maintenance intervals. However, GTG-AAC was not used in NPPs in Korea because of the lack of operation/maintenance experience. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the safety of APR+ considering a diversity of AAC types. This paper analyzes reliability data, mechanical specifications of DGs and GTGs, and the sensitivity of core damage frequency to the ACC type.

원자력발전소의 대체교류발전기는 소내정전에 대처하기 위하여 설치되고 있다. 국내 원자력발전소에서 사용되고 있는 대체교류발전기의 구동형식은 대부분 디젤발전기이다. 가스터빈은 디젤발전기보다 구조가 간단하고 유지정비주기가 길다는 장점이 있지만 국내 원자력발전소에 적용사례가 없다는 단점이 있다. 본 논문의 목적은 APR+ 대체교류발전기의 구동형식을 선정하기 위하여 디젤발전기와 가스터빈의 민감도 분석을 하는 데 있다. 이를 위하여 디젤발전기와 가스터빈의 물리적 특성과 국내의 대체교류발전기 적용현황, 그리고 US-APWR의 비상발전기 및 대체교류발전기의 가스터빈 적용사례를 조사하였다. 마지막으로 신뢰도 데이터에 대한 민감도 분석과 신형 노형인 APR+에 가스터빈 대체교류발전기를 적용하여 노심손상빈도의 민감도를 분석하였다.
