Abstract:
At Koeberg Nuclear Power Station, the reactor thermal power limit is one of the most important quantities specified in the operating licence, which is issued to Eskom by the National Nuclear Regulator (NNR). The reactor thermal power is measured using different methodologies, with the most important being the Secondary Heat Balance (SHB) test which has been programmed within the central Koeberg computer and data processing system (KIT). Improved accuracy in the SHB will result in a more accurate representation of the thermal power generated in the core. The input variables have a significant role to play in determining the accuracy of the measured power. The main aim of this thesis is to evaluate the sensitivity of the SHB to the changes in all input variables that are important in the determination of the reactor power. The guidance provided by the Electric Power Research institute (EPRI) is used to determine the sensitivity. To aid with the analysis, the SHB test was duplicated using alternate software. Microsoft Excel VBA and Python were used. This allowed the inputs to be altered so that the sensitivity can be determined. The new inputs included the uncertainties and errors of the instrumentation and measurement systems. The results of these alternate programmes were compared with the official SHB programme. At any power station, thermal efficiency is essential to ensure that the power station can deliver the maximum output power while operating as efficiently as possible. Electricity utilities assign performance criteria to all their stations. At Koeberg, the thermal performance programme is developed to optimize the plant steam cycle performance and focusses on the turbine system. This thesis evaluates the thermal performance programme and turbine performance. The Primary Heat Balance (PHB) test also measures reactor power but uses instrumentation within the reactor core. Due to its location inside the reactor coolant system, the instrumentation used to calculate the PHB is subject to large temperature fluctuations and therefore has an impact on its reliability. To quantify the effects of these fluctuations, the sensitivity of the PHB was determined. The same principle, which was used for the SHB sensitivity analysis, was applied to the PHB. The impact of each instrument on the PHB test result was analysed using MS Excel. The use of the software could be useful in troubleshooting defects in the instrumentation. A sample of previously authorised tests and associated data were used in this thesis. The data for these tests are available from the Koeberg central computer and data processing system.

Abstract:

Nuclear reactors release small amounts of radioactivity during their normal operations. The most common method of calculating the dose to the public that results from such releases uses Gaussian Plume models. We are investigating these methods using CAP88-PC, a computer code developed for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the USA that calculates the concentration of radionuclides released from a stack using Pasquill stability classification. A buoyant or momentum driven part is also included. The uptake of the released radionuclide by plants, animals and humans, directly and indirectly, is then calculated to obtain the doses to the public. This method is well established but is known to suffer from many approximations and does not give answers that are accurate to be better than 50% in many cases. More accurate, though much more computer-intensive methods have been developed to calculate the movement of gases 
using fluid dynamic models. Such a model, using the code FLUENT can model complex terrains and will also be investigated in this work. This work is a preliminary study to compare the results of the traditional Gaussian plume model and a fluid dynamic model for a simplified case. The results indicate that Computational Fluid Dynamics calculations give qualitatively similar results with the possibility of including much more effects than the simple Gaussian plume model.

Abstract:
The induction motor is a highly utilised electrical machine in industry, with the nuclear industry being no exception. A typical nuclear power station usually contains more than 1000 motors, where they are used in safety and non-safety application. The efficient and fault-free operation of this machine is critical to the safe and economical operation of any plant, including nuclear power stations. A comprehensive literature review was conducted that covered the functioning of the induction machine, its common faults and methods of detecting these faults. The Condition Based Maintenance framework was introduced in which condition monitoring of induction machines is an essential component. The main condition monitoring methods were explained with the main focus being on Motor Current Signature Analysis (MCSA) and the various methods associated with it. Three analysis methods were selected for further study, namely, Current Signature Analysis, Instantaneous Power Signature Analysis (IPSA) and Motor Square Current Signature Analysis (MSCSA). Essentially, the methodology used in this dissertation was to study the three common motor faults (bearings, stator and rotor cage) in isolation and compare the results to that of the healthy motor of the same type. The test loads as well as fault severity were varied where possible to investigate its effect on the fault detection scheme. The data was processed using an FFT based algorithm programed in MATLAB. The results of the study of the three spectral analysis techniques showed that no single technique is able to detect motor faults under all tested circumstances. The MCSA technique proved the most capable of the three techniques as it was able to detect faults under most conditions, but generally suffered poor results in inverter driven motor applications. The IPSA and MSCSA techniques performed selectively when compared to MCSA and were relatively successful when detecting the mechanical faults. The fact that the former techniques produce results at unique points in the spectrum would suggest that they are more suitable for verifying results. As part of a comprehensive condition monitoring scheme, as required by a large population of the motors on a nuclear power station, the three techniques presented in this study could readily be incorporated into the Condition Based Maintenance framework where the strengths of each could be exploited.

The quality assurance role is an essential function in high risk industries such as the nuclear power industry where process failures can potentially have catastrophic results. As part of mitigating the risk inherent in such industries, the need for reliable quality assurance cannot be over-emphasised. Underpinning a reliable quality assurance function, lies the need for effective identification of risk; as well as effective decision making processes by competent auditors. A nuclear quality assurance (QA) department has noted an increase in the variability of its audit outcomes, which has resulted in the value of the audit process being questioned by various stakeholders. The research endeavoured to: explore and describe the practice amongst auditors when rating audit findings; potentially identify reasons for inconsistencies amongst auditors when rating findings; and provide recommendations to improve both the consistency amongst auditors when rating audit finding and the overall performance of the audit process. An exploratory study using the Delphi technique was adopted to enable multiple iterations of qualitative and quantitative data collection and analysis, mimicking elements of a sequential exploratory strategy.

Abstract:
In line with its commitment to safe nuclear power generation, the Koeberg Nuclear Power Station (KNPS) replaced the outdated vibration monitoring system with a modern on-line vibration monitoring system. This will allow plant personnel to monitor components on a continuous basis which will provide faster response time in the scenario of excessive vibrations of the primary components. This study focuses on the analysis of the vibration of the primary components of the KNPS by analysing the frequency spectra of the vibration signals of the primary components and comparing these to reference signatures obtained during similar operating conditions. The condition of the vibration sensors will also be evaluated. In order to obtain a deeper understanding of the vibration behaviour and hence vibration signatures of the KNPS primary reactor components, a simplified mathematical model of the primary components is developed, based on the system of elasto-dynamic equations. The equations are solved numerically and used to simulate the KNPS vibration monitoring system. The mechanical system is modelled. Time series are generated and Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT) are calculated to simulate the new KNPS monitoring system. In the simulation mechanical degradation of the primary components as well as sensor degradation is simulated. The purpose of this study is to indicate whether mechanical degradation has occurred in the primary components of the plant and to validate the vibration signals. At the same time the study aims to lay a foundation for future monitoring and interpretation of vibration signatures by simulating the vibration and the monitoring signals. It was found that the primary components had not been affected by mechanical degradation as no deviations in resonances were detected in the frequency signatures. A small number of vibration sensors were found to have deteriorated; hence replacement / maintenance was proposed. The mechanical model and the simulation of the monitoring signals proved to be useful to understand and interpret the vibration of the KNPS primary components.

Abstract:
Avstängda kärnkraftverk berövar många människor av elektricitet och det skulle ha en negativ inverkan både på företagets framtoning och mänskliga aktiviteter. På grund av detta behöver tillgängligheten av utrustningen i alla byggnaderna som kärnkraftverken består ses till. HVAC-system (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) spelar en viktig roll när det gäller tillgänglighet av utrustning eftersom dessa system ser till pålitligheten är på topp genom att anpassade omgivningsförhållanden till utrustningen. Att designa ventilationssystemet rätt är därför mycket viktigt och måste göras noggrant. Denna rapport introducerar metodologin för att designa och optimera ett ventilationssystem för en av byggnaderna i ett kärnkraftverk. Utöver detta utvecklas och beskrivs en metodologi för att designa ett rökkontrollssystem för en byggnad som ingår i kärnkraftverket. Dessa metodologier har implementerats för en byggnad i en demineraliseringsstation, Hinkley Point C project.
During nuclear power plants shutdown many people could be deprived of electricity and it would have a negative impact both on the company’s image and on people activities. As a consequence, availability of equipments in the different buildings which compose the power plant needs to be assured. HVAC system (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) plays an important role on the reliability of these equipments as it makes sure that ambient conditions in the buildings fit the operating temperature range of the equipments. Consequently sizing a ventilation system is really important and it needs to be carried out seriously. This paper introduces the methodology to size and optimize a ventilation system for nuclear power plants’ building. This paper also develops the methodology used to size a smoke control system in a nuclear related building. Direct application of this methodology has been realised for a specific building which is the demineralization station of Hinkley Point C project.

This research project in Procurement Quality Engineering was conducted at a Nuclear Power Generation Company in the Western Cape, South Africa. During the past decade, quality management has become increasingly recognised as highly desirable for all organisations at all levels. All organisations, to varied degrees, can benefit from the application of quality management skills in some parts of their daily operations. The research project will investigate the impact or effect of late deliveries of spares on the operational cost of the organisation. The organisation is not aware what impact the delivery of spares has on operating costs. Against the above background, the problem to be researched within the ambit of this dissertation reads as follows: "Poor product and / or service delivery from Vendors and / or Suppliers have an adverse impact on the output of the Procurement Quality Department" .The primary research objectives of this study are the following: ~ To emphasise the importance of quality within the supply chain. ~ To investigate the impact of non-conforming items delivered to a Nuclear Power Plant. ~ To determine measures which can be put in place to improve communication between suppliers, vendors, buyers and procurement quality engineering. ~ To determine or investigate the cost of poor quality in the organisation. ~ To improve the quality of goods and services through the application of a quality management system within the supply chain. The research method used in this research project involved both qualitative and quantitative research processes. Questionnaires and statistical techniques were used to analyse the data, and to draw conclusions and recommend possible areas for improvement. The research methodology falls within the ambit of a case study.

Abstract Emergency Borating System has been widely used in the new third generation nuclear power plant in the world. HL1000 nuclear power plant is equipped with the Emergency Borating System (RBS) as an engineered safety facility, which provides the reactor the high pressure safety boron injection and long-term boration functions to ensure the core in subcritical. Firstly, the main functional requirements of RBS system of new third generation nuclear power plants in the world are introduced. Then, according to the two functional requirements for RBS of HL1000 nuclear power plant, reactivity control and confinements, the design criteria for RBS are determined. Based on these design criteria, the methodologies for RBS capacity demonstration are developed by the multi status point method. The relevant capacity parameters of RBS, including the maximum and minimum injection flow of RBS and the minimum volume requirements of boric acid tank are calculated separately.

Full text
Abstract:
The Ontario Power Generation (OPG) Pickering B Facility consists of four 540 MW nuclear generating units. Each unit is furnished with a once-through Condenser Cooling Water (CCW) System that uses Lake Ontario water. Zebra mussels (Dreissena polymorpha) are infesting the condenser cooling water intakes at Pickering. The mature mussels and their shells become entrained in the CCW, are deposited in the condenser inlet water boxes, and become lodged in the condenser tube sheets and within the tubes. As a result, the flow through the condenser is reduced, and the existing Condenser Tube Cleaning System (CTCS) performance is degraded. This reduces the Turbine-Generator generating capability that results in a loss of electric generation revenues for OPG, and increased maintenance costs to manually remove the zebra mussels from the condenser. OPG decided to install Debris Filters in the six 72-inch diameter inlets of each of the four Pickering B units to automatically remove the zebra mussels before they enter the condensers and discharge them back into the lake. The Debris Filters for Unit 8 were installed during a scheduled outage in the winter of 2001/2002. The Unit 5 installation was completed at the end of 2002 and the Unit 6 & 7 installations are scheduled for 2003. The installed equipment is performing as expected. The zebra mussels are intercepted by the Debris Filter, and are automatically discharged into the condenser bypass and returned to the lake. The CTCS system can again perform its intended function to prevent bio-fouling buildup inside the condenser tubes. As a result, generation capacity increased and maintenance expenditures decreased with a net result of increased revenues for OPG.

Abstract:
In this paper, a heat conduction equation and a dynamic thermoelastic equation are briefly deduced and established based on Continuum Mechanics. First, an qualitative discussion is emphatically centered around the couple term and the dynamic term of the equation by means of the dimensional analysis and by considering the combination of the characteristics of the materials and of the thermal load effected on the nuclear power station pump under study. Second, formulations of the FEM for non-coupled heated equations and quasi-static thermoelastic equations are derived in this paper. Third, a half space thermal shock problem is used as a computational example in the highlighted research on the varying behavior of the dynamic thermal stress on the temperature slope. The conclusion of the paper provides reliable justification for applying the numerical method. Finally, the distribution and variety of the temperature field, the thermal stress field and the thermal deformation field at various transient moments on the pump are given.
