The article considers the possible ways to optimize the technological solutions of the recharge and boron control system of nuclear power plants under construction within the AES-2006 project. The possibilities for optimization of technological solutions of the system of recharge and boron regulation of the AES-2006 project, which will not affect the reliability and efficiency of its main functions: purge-recharge of the primary circuit and boron regulation, were studied. As a result of the analysis of technological solutions and analytical calculations carried out during the work, it was found that in the system of recharge and boron regulation of the NPP within the project AES-2006 it is possible to perform optimization basing on reduction the metal content of the heat exchange equipment by reducing the surface area of the heat exchangers of the coolant outlet, reducing the power of pumps, as well as reducing the diameter of a number of main pipelines. Implementation of the proposed optimization of technological solutions will allow a more rational arrangement of the system and reduce capital costs for the construction of nuclear power plants as a whole, while not adversely affect the safety of the system and its functions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
