[en] When a nuclear project is being developed, several safety analyses are carried out one after another on the same installation ... All safety organisations today agree that analyses should be based on the following concepts: the containing of radioactive products. The maintenance of these barriers in the event of abnormal functioning or an accident through a special security system. The level of safety that is finally obtained is evaluated by associating the notions of probability, at least at the qualitative level to the various failings that might occur with a view to making sure that whatever risk remains is acceptable. One should however stress that nuclear safety must always be seen from a global point of view. Therefore two other aspects should also be given attention: the interfaces between nuclear installations; the right of pursuit, or, put another way, the need to examine from a safety angle possible difficulties that may arise from products which have left the installation to go to another one

[en] Safety analysis of the nuclear facility which has been out of work for a long time and whose future is not defined at the present moment, can not be connected to the usual, normatively regulated system analysis procedure in both operational and accidental regimes. Therefore, the safety analysis of the present status of the present status of the reactor RA is related to system and components analysis which, in present conditions maintain their nuclear functions operational. In the first place, it refers to components and equipment in which radioactive radiation generation still exists and to installations and equipment maintaining radiation level below permitted limit. in the context of the analysis the following areas are being covered: present status characteristics, accidental events while operating period from 1959. to 1984., nuclear fuels and radioactive waste inventory, basic characteristics and status of safety-related systems and equipment, radiation protection, potential accident analysis at present status of the reactor RA, potential accidental situations due to natural events (earthquakes, water flood) or man-induced events and security. 8 refs

[en] The main object of this study is to perform thermal-hydraulic analyses of small (1 % of cold leg flow area), intermediate (30%). and large (100%) break loss of coolant accident (LOCA) of AP600 reactor system. Detailed examination ot AP600 thermal-hydraulic parameters during these transients is covered. Behaviour ot the system components under accident conditions is observed. Sufficiency and effectiveness of the passive safety systems are evaluated. TRAC-PF1 which is a best -estimate ode is used for for Ihe transient analyses. A detailed model is established to describe the AP600 features.Control of the system components is achieved by specifying proper setpoints, boundary and initial cconditions. It has been determined that the performance of the AP600 system in LOCA cases is satisfactory. It is observed that for small and intermediate breaks the system is succesfully depressurized without any core uncovery, and that the peak clad temperature do not exceed the steady-state values. For the design basis large break LOCA, the peak clad temperature during the accident is 1239 K which is below the design limit of 1477 K

[en] This paper discusses the use of addenda to the Radioactive Waste Management Complex (RWMC) Documented Safety Analysis (DSA) located at the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory (INEEL). Addenda were prepared for several systems and processes at the facility that lacked adequate descriptive information and hazard analysis in the DSA. They were also prepared for several new activities involving unreviewed safety questions (USQs). Ten addenda to the RWMC DSA have been prepared since the last annual update

[en] The purpose of this Safety Analysis Report for Packaging is to provide the analyses and evaluations necessary to demonstrate that the CNS 14-215H cask provided by Chem-Nuclear Systems Inc. can safety transport greater than Type A quantities of radioactive material on the Hanford Site. The CNS 14-215H cask was chosen for its loading abilities, availability, and because it has a Certificate of Compliance (CoC) issued by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for transporting low specific activity in quantities greater than Type A material in commerce. Although the CDC does not cover greater than Type A material not meeting LSA requirements, it does allow for an established level of protection in determining the safety of transporting Type B material on the Hanford Site
