In the nuclear industry, in order to keep pace with the 4th industrial revolution era, they are trying to improve the construction and maintenance ability by utilizing the technologies such as digital twin and VR/AR from the construction stage. However, the nuclear 3D CAD model, which is used as the base in the latest technology, is heavy due to a large number of facilities per unit space compared to other industrial companies, and it is difficult to directly incorporate the latest technology into the results of CAD programs for design purposes. In this study, in order to improve usability, we tried to lighten the 3D model. First, we analyze the existing nuclear power plant 3D model and draw out the problems and features. Secondly, we derived the factors to consider when we make the 3D CAD models lightweight.

Protective coatings at nuclear power plants should be designed to withstand exposure to ambient conditions during normal operation or design-basis accidents. However, there was a change in the perception of the protective coating to the revision of the Regulatory Guidelines by the NRC in July 2000. In other words, maintenance guidelines have been strengthened in order to minimize the clogging of the cooling water system due to the substances in the containment building. Therefore, KHNP, the contractor and operator of the nuclear power plant, plans to develop the coating system for nuclear power plants in accordance with the regulation, and plans to develop its own coating expert.

As defects may be found in the brush gear of the generator due to the quality of the collector ring and the operation environment. A research on the operation condition and defect factors of the collector ring and brush, in relation to the brush gears in generators operating within Korea has been carried out, as well as an analysis of factors that affect the collector rings.

Thermal infrared imaging is a highly promising technology for condition monitoring and predictive maintenance of electronic, electrical and mechanical elements in nuclear power plants. However, conventional low-cost infrared imaging systems suffer from poor spatial resolution compared to commercial CCD cameras. This paper describes an approach to enhance inspection performances for calandria reactor area of Wolsung nuclear power plant through the technique of superimposing thermal infrared image into real CCD image. In the occurrence of thermal abnormalities on observation points and areas of calandria reactor area, unusual hot image taken from thermal infrared camera is mapped upon real CCD image. The performance of the technique has been evaluated in the experiment carried out at Wolsung nuclear power plant in the overhaul period. The results show that localizations of thermal abnormalities on calandria reactor face can be estimated accurately.

Used analog control systems have been converted into digital control systems due to performance degradation and difficulty of maintenance. There are few domestic DCS (Distribued Control System)s that have been applied to power plant. To apply a domestic DCS to power plant, the reliability, redundacny, and fault tolerance of DCS is important. Besides those items, the control action of control function block is also important. In this paper, we describe the requirements that PID control function block has to have, and implement a PID control function block that satisfies those requirements. Finally, real control result using an implemented PID function block in thermal power plant shows the validity of an implemented PID control function block.

Issues and themes concerned with nuclear power plant uprating are examined. Attention is brought to the fact that many candidate nuclear power plants for uprating have anyway been operated below their rated power for a significant part of their operating life. The key issues remain safety and reliability in operation at all times, irrespective of the nuclear power plant's chronological or design age or power rating. The effects of power uprates are discussed in terms of material aspects and expected demands on the systems, structures and components. The impact on operation and maintenance methods is indicated in terms of changes to the ageing surveillance programmes. Attention is brought to the necessity checking or revising operator actions after power up-rating has been implemented.

Preserving reservoir safety has recognized to be important for the public where a vast majority of dams are located upstream of greatly populated cities and industrialized areas. Buckling, floatation and cavitation have caused failure in the spillway gates and conveyance features during past catastrophic events; showed their vulnerability and need for regular inspection along with reviewing design calculations to ensure the spillway meet current design standards. This paper investigates the hydraulic and structural consideration of dam's spillway by evaluating the data of Karkheh Dam's. Discharge capacity, flood routings and cavitation damage risk were main features for hydraulic considerations where hydrostatic and hydrodynamic forces and stability conditions were considered in structural considerations.

플랜트 배치 최적화 문제의 목적은 장치를 연결하는 파이프의 길이를 최소화 하는데 있다. 하지만, 기존 연구들은 대체적으로 단일 층의 배치 문제를 다루고 있으며, 또한 장치 간 유지 보수에 필요한 최소 공간 확보, 사고 예방을 위한 장치 간 이격 거리등 안전 요소를 간과해 왔다. 본 연구에서는 장치 간 유지 보수에 필요한 최소 거리 확보 및 안전 이격 거리를 고려하여 플랜트 배치 문제를 MILP(Mixed Integer Linear Programming) 형태의 문제로 정의하였다. 본 문제의 목적함수는 장치 간 연결하는 파이프 비용이며 제약조건은 안전을 위한 장치 간 최소 이격 거리, 유지 보수에 필요한 공간으로 설정하였다. 하지만, 공정 특성에 따라 필요한 공간 및 작업자의 통행 등 다양한 제약조건을 수반하게 된다. 이에 따라 플랜트 배치 문제를 일반적인 수학식으로 표현하는 데 많은 제약이 있으며, 따라서 함수의 미분식을 이용하는 기존 최적화 방법론을 이용하여 문제를 해결하는 데 많은 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 함수의 미분식을 적용하지 않고 이용이 가능한 경험적 최적화 기법 중 하나인 PSO(Particle Swarm Optimization)를 이용하여 최적화를 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 모델의 검증을 위해 Ethylene Oxide 공정을 2층으로 배치하는 최적화를 수행하였다.
