Descrizione e Attività
Descrizione Generale
The objective of this coordination action is to develop best practice guidelines for the performance of Level-2 PSA methodologies with a view to harmonization at EU level and allowing a meaningful and practical uncertainty evaluation in a Level-2 PSA. Speficic relationships with community in charge of nuclear reactor safety (utilities, safety authorities, vendors, research or services companies) will be established in order to define the current needs in terms of guidelines for level 2 PSA development and applications.
A technical group of level 2 PSA experts from project partners will propose guidelines for a limited-scope and a full-scope L2 PSA based on practical experience of each partner. Elaboration of these guidelines for operating plants will be the main activity of this coordination action. This guideline will be discussed with End-Users community and their opinion will be taken into account in the final version. The applicability of such a guideline for future reactor (Gen IV) will be also examined.
Attività svolta da ENEA
ENEA deals with the Generation IV reactors (e.g. Lead Fast Reactors, Sodium Fast Reactor, Gas Fast Reactors) to analyse thir characteristics, in terms of severe accident prevention and mitigation, and to evaluate the suitability of the guidelines developed for level 2 PSA for LWRs.
