Abstract:
During the normal operation of the CPR1000, containment airtightness is monitored in real time by the Containment Leakage Monitoring System(hereinafter referred to as EPP)and is evaluated by Ql60, estimating containment’s leakage under a pressure difference of +60hPa(6 kPa) inside and outside the containment. Due to the inherent calculation model, EPP can’t figure out Ql60 in the fitting data accumulation stage. Based on the statistics of EPP’s historical operating data from a nuclear power plant, this article discusses how to estimate the containment airtightness in the initial phase and raises a scheme.
