In order to investigate the ways to enhance the seismic performance of APR1400 seismic fragile equipment by direct design changes, four equipment such as Reactor Vessel Support, Integrated Head Assembly, Remote Shutdown Console, and Pressurizer are reviewed using information of the main dimensions, seismic stress evaluation results, design FRS, etc. in this paper. In addition to the direct reinforcement of equipments, the feasibility of seismic isolation for the safety related cabinet is also investigated and the actual adaption plan of a commercial spring-damper system is briefly reviewed.

We investigate the comparison of fault current characteristics between the separates three-phase flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) and integrated three-phase flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL). The single-phase flux-lock type SFCL consists of two coils. The primary coil is wound in parallel to the secondary coil on an iron core and superconducting elements are connected to secondary coil in series. Superconducting elements are used by the YBCO coated conductor. The separated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL consists of single-phase flux-phase type SFCL in each phase. But the integrated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL consists of three-phase flux-reactors wound on an iron core. Flux-reactor consists of the same turn's ratio between coil 1 and coil 2 for each single phase. To compare the current limiting characteristics of the separated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL and integrated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL, the short circuit experiments are carried out fault condition such as the single line-to-ground fault. The experimental result shows that fault current limiting characteristic of the separated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL was better than integrated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL. And the integrated three-phase flux-lock type SFCL has an effect on sound phase.

최근 범용소프트제어기 설계는 원자력발전소의 첨단주제어실에 적용되고 있다. 범용소프트제어기는 고집적 주제어실에서 비안전 기기뿐만이 아니라 안전기기를 제어할 수 있는 소프트웨어 기반의 수동제어 수단이다. 따라서 범용소프트제어기는 신형 주제어실의 단일 워크스테이션 구현을 위한 필수적인 설계특성을 갖고 있다. 전통적인 주제어실은 컴퓨터 기반으로 하는 통합 운전원 인터페이스 체계로 대체되고 있다. 범용소프트제어기의 오작동신호 발생 가능성을 줄이기 위해 어떠한 기기의 조작을 위해서는 2단계의 구분된 운전원 조작을 요구하는 설계를 고려하였다. 범용소프트제어기 오작동 가능성은 매우 낮기 때문에 범용소프트제어기 그자체로 발전소의 트립 가능성을 증가시키지는 않는다. 범용소프트제어기는 원자력발전소의 계측제어분야/인간연계 분야의 혁신을 대표한다. 범용소프트제어기는 인간연계를 기반으로 하는 단일 표시장치에 다양한 디비젼의 제어와 표시기를 통합하고 있다. 범용소프트제어기의 고장으로부터 안전기능 수행의 영향을 막기 위해 안전기기 및 기능에는 공학적 안전설비 신호가 적용된다. 또한 안전등급 수동스위치는 범용소프트제어기의 신호보다 우선한다. 그러므로 범용소프트제어기의 오작동 신호는 안전관련 스위치로부터의 제어신호에 의해 차단되어질 수 있다.

The fire protection system of Nuclear Power Plants(NPPs) is an integrated system that is applied multi-field technology. So, it needs synthetic design and analysis, that is, the plan of fire protection, fire compartment, fire detection, fire suppression, and success of safety shut down, etc. In case of a fire in NPPs, secure the safety of reactor and minimize the radioactivity contamination. For this purpose, perform the fire risk analysis and make up the deducted problem through the improvement of design or the change of operation process.

We have designed micro-fuel processor system, which consists of a steam reforming area and a PROX(preferential oxidation) area. Micro-fuel processor system generates $H_2$ rich gas from a methanol. In our experiment, we have integrated micro-fuel processor system using low temperature cofired ceramics (LTCC) process because LTCC is superior to other materials principally due to their high thermal and chemical stability, simpler fabrication processes, and lower materials cost. Therefore, we have studied and integrated micro-fuel processor system containing embedded heaters, cavities, and 3D structures of micro-channel with LTCC. Also we have optimized the LTCC process.

A numerical study was conducted to predict the performance curve of a canned motor pump for SMART(System Integrated Modular Advanced ReacTor). The study used a computational domain which included not only the pump but also a suction pipe and a volute casing with a discharging pipe in order to simulate an experimental setup. The ANSYS CFX program was utilized to obtain flow characteristics inside the pump as well as the overall pressure rise across the pump operating on- and off-design points. Computed results showed that the performance of the pump at off-design points was much lower than expected. Special attention was made to find the cause of the low performance of the pump operating at low flow rate.

Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) have received much attention from the nuclear industry as an alternative platform to programmable logic controllers for digital instrumentation and control. The software aspect of FPGA development consists of several steps of synthesis and refinement, and also requires verification activities, such as simulations that are performed individually at each step. This study proposed an integrated software-testing framework for simulating all artifacts of the FPGA software development simultaneously and evaluating whether all artifacts work correctly using common oracle programs. This method also generates a massive number of meaningful simulation scenarios that reflect reactor shutdown logics. The experiment, which was performed on two FPGA software implementations, showed that it can dramatically save both time and costs.

암반지반에 주어진 등재해도 스펙트럼에 상응하는 원전부지 토사지반에서의 등재해도 스펙트럼을 도출하기 위한 확률론적 방법론을 제시하였다. 이를 위해 지진 운동 및 지반의 불확실성을 고려한 지반응답 해석을 통해 토사지반 지표에서의 지진동 증폭계수를 산정하였다. 증폭계수는 가장 상관관계가 높은 지반운동의 스펙트럴 가속도 규모와의 회귀분석을 통해 계산되었다. 이 방법론을 적용하여 국내 KNGR (Korean Next Generation Reactor) 및 APR1400 (Advanced Power Reactor 1400) 원전의 포괄부지 지반 중 B1, B4, C1 및 C3 지반을 대상으로 등재해도 스펙트럼을 도출하였다. 등재해도 스펙트럼을 통해 지진동 발생 빈도 별 위험 주파수 대역을 평가하고 분석하였다. 이 결과는 원전의 종합적 지진리스크 평가 결과를 보다 합리적으로 개선하는 데에 활용될 수 있으며, 향후 다양한 종류의 토사지반에 대한 등재해도 스펙트럼을 평가하는 데에 적용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
