On line fatigue monitoring and margins probabilistic assessment; Fatiguemetre et evaluation probabiliste des marges

Abstract

An on-line computer aided system has been developed by Electricite de France, the french utility, for a fatigue monitoring of critical locations in the nuclear steam supply system. This tool, called fatiguemeter, includes as input data only existing plant parameters and is based on some conservative assumptions at several steps of the damage assessment (thermal boundary conditions, stress computation...). This paper presents recent developments performed toward a better assessing of margins involved in the complete analysis. The methodology is enlightened with an example showing the influence of plant parameters incertitude on the final stress computed at a PWR 900 MW unit pressurizer surge line nozzle. (authors). 4 figs., 4 refs.
