Enhancement of risk informed validation framework for external hazard scenario

Journal Article Bodda, Saran Srikanth ; Gupta, Abhinav ; Dinh, Nam - Reliability Engineering and System Safety

In recent years, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) have developed methodologies to assess the vulnerabilities of nuclear plants against site specific extreme hazards. In many cases, advanced simulation tools are being considered to simulate multi-physics, multi-scale phenomena and to evaluate vulnerability of nuclear facilities. The credibility of advanced simulation tools is assessed based on a formal verification, validation, and uncertainty quantification procedure. One of the key limitations in validation is the lack of relevant experimental data at system-level. This limitation leads to a decrease in the confidence of system-level risk predictions. Therefore,more »« less

Advanced Validation Risk-Informed Approach for the Flooding Tool Based Upon Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics: Validation and Development Status of NEUTRINO

Technical Report Yoo, Junsoo ; Choi, Yong-Joon

Risk-Informed validation is to focus advanced validation on high-priority and critical elements of the RISMC methods and tools that can best be addressed by this targeted approach to validation. Initial validation focus will be on the RISMC flooding analysis computer software based upon Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH), NEUTRINO. The NEUTRINO code is a SPH-based CFD software adopted as one of the RISMC modeling tools for external hazards analysis. This document discusses the validation and development activities of NEUTRINO, especially in relation to its simulation capability for flooding hazards analysis. In order to draw meaningful conclusions from the discussion, we firstmore »« less

Risk-Informed External Hazards Analysis for Seismic and Flooding Phenomena for a Generic PWR

Technical Report Parisi, Carlo ; Prescott, Steve ; Ma, Zhegang ; ...

This report describes the activities performed during the FY2017 for the US-DOE Light Water Reactor Sustainability Risk-Informed Safety Margin Characterization (LWRS-RISMC), Industry Application #2. The scope of Industry Application #2 is to deliver a risk-informed external hazards safety analysis for a representative nuclear power plant. Following the advancements occurred during the previous FYs (toolkits identification, models development), FY2017 focused on: increasing the level of realism of the analysis; improving the tools and the coupling methodologies. In particular the following objectives were achieved: calculation of buildings pounding and their effects on components seismic fragility; development of a SAPHIRE code PRA modelsmore »« less

ANALYSIS OF SAFETY IMPACTS FROM EXTERNAL FLOODING USING THE RISK-INFORMED SAFETY MARGIN CHARACTERIZATION (RISMC) TOOLKIT

Conference Smith, Curtis L. ; Mandelli, Diego ; Prescott, Steve

The existing fleet of U.S. nuclear power plants is in the process of extending its lifetime and increasing the power generated from these plants via power uprates. In order to evaluate the impact of these factors on the safety of the plant, the Risk-Informed Safety Margin Characterization (RISMC) project aims to provide insight to decision makers through a series of simulations of the plant dynamics for different initial conditions (e.g., probabilistic analysis and uncertainty quantification). This paper demonstrates how Idaho National Laboratory (INL) researchers use the RISMC Toolkit to investigate complex nuclear plant phenomena using RAVEN and RELAP-7. The analysismore »« less
