  • This paper focuses on the stability and operability of a man-machine system considering a human operator. Some papers' main interest has been the stability only, but the operability such as fatigue is also the other main interest. In a man-machine system, feelings such as motional, visual, and kinesthetic are important since those enable operators to work easily or fatigue operators. A model of a man-machine system has been developed. Motional, visual, and kinesthetic feelings may be considered as feedbacked sensor signals. We also have quantified the degree of fatigue with respect to reference operation. This is a performance index to be optimized. Several methods are presented to optimize the degree of fatigue and the stability of the integrated system. Examples are presented to show that the usefulness of the proposed modeling method and fatigue mitigating algorithm.

  • The spent fuel handling tool is used to handle the refuel bundle and treated by hoist rope on the bridge crane. The new developed handling tool of NPP(Nuclear Power Plant) should be conformed the structural stability under earthquake condition. In this study, the stress and seismic analysis of the handling tool are performed by finite element method. Using the Floor Response Spectrum(FRS) obtained through the time history analysis, the modal and seismic analysis under Operating Basis Earthquake(OBE) and Safe Shutdown Earthquake(SSE) load conditions are carried out. Total 4 cases of different locations of the trolly and the hook are investigated. With the spring-damper element, the tension analysis of hoist rope is conducted. The stability of handling tool under earthquake load condition is conformed with regulatory guide.

  • To utilize the uranium resources contained in the spent nuclear fuel generated from the nuclear power plants, the remote handling and dismantling technology is required. The dismantling process of the sport fuel is the most common process involved in the spent fuel recycling, the rod consolidation and the disposal processes. Since the machine used in the dismantling process are located and operated in isolated space, so called a hot cell, the reliability of machines is very important. To enhance the reliability of the process, in this research, the graphical monitoring system is developed for the fuel dismantling process. The graphic model of each machine is composed of many parts and every parts of the graphic model are given their own kinematics. Using the kinematics and simulating the graphic model in the virtual environment, the validity of the conceptual design can be verified before ...

  • 한국형처분시스템에 이용될 가압경수로형 사용후핵연료를 위한 KDC-1 처분용기를 개발하였다. 처분용기 안전성 평가의 일환으로서 처분용기에 대한 구조적 안전성을 평가하였다. 처분용기의 구조적 안전성은 처분조건과 취급조건 2가지로 구분하여 평가하였다. 처분조건에서는 3가지 하중 조건, 정상하중 조건, 비정상 하중 조건, 암반의 움직임을 고려하였다. 처분조건에서 평가 결과 3가지 조건에 대해 모두 안전계수가 설계기준보다 컸다. 취급조건에서는 처분용기 취급 중 구조해석과 처분용기 낙하 사고시 구조해석을 수행하였다. 취급장비 고장 시나리오 평가결과 1개 혹은 2개의 취급 장치가 고장을 일으켰을 때도 취급장비를 계속 운전하는 것이 가능하였다. 처분용기 낙하 시나리오에서는 계산결과 최대 응력은 0.762 MPa 이었으며, 이 값은 주철의 항복응력과 비교하면 거의 무시할 수 있는 값이었다. 본 논문에서 제안한 KDC-1 처분용기에 대한 처분조건 및 취급조건에서의 구조해석 결과, 한국형처분시스템에서 고려하고 있는 조건에서 그 구조적 안전성을 확인하였다.

  • There are 4 CANDU6 type reactors operating at Wolsong site. For fuelling operation of certain fuel channels (with flow less than 21.5 kg/s) a FARE flow Assist Ram Extension) device is used. During the refuelling operation, two remote controlled F/Ms (Fuelling Machines) are attached to a designated fuel channel and carry out refuelling job. The upstream F/M inserts new fuel bundles into the fuel channel while the downstream F/M discharges spent fuel bundles. In order to assist fuelling operation of channels that has lower coolant How rate, the FARE device is used instead of F/M C-ram to push the fuel bundle string. The FARE device is essentially a How restricting element that produces enough drag force to push the fuel bundle string toward downstream F/M. Channels that require the use of FARE device for refuelling are located along the outside perimeter of reactor. This paper presents the FARE device design feature, steady state hydraulic and operational characteristics and behavior of the device when coupled with fuel bundle string during fuelling operation. The study showed that the steady state performance of FARE device meets the design objective that was confirmed by downstream F/M C-ram force to be positive.
