Abstract:In the contemporary society the need for assurance of technological and environmental safety of production facilities (PF), including hazardous ones, is dictated by technological development of the economy. This fact presupposes that the criteria of potential natural factors (geological, hydrological, meteorological) impact should be clarified during the design process. Insignificant number of available scientific generalizations of external factors impact on PF does not allow for making an initial protectabil… Show more
“…If the construction of the nuclear power plant continues, the SIA Gidrotekhproekt plans to equip the monitoring system with equipment for remote measurement of wind and temperature in the atmosphere [9]. Such measurements, as shown by the experience of the SIA Gidrotekhproekt at the Belarussian NPP site [10], make it possible to successfully study the atmospheric dispersion.…”

Ensuring the technological and environmental safety of nuclear power plants (NPP) involves the collection and analysis of data on the state of the natural environment near nuclear power plants, including the atmosphere and surface waters. To obtain and organize such data, as well as for their subsequent processing and engineering calculations, appropriate monitoring observations are provided. The latter begin to be carried out long before the start of NPP construction and continue at all stages of the NPP life cycle, including the periods of construction, operation and decommissioning of the plant. The purpose of this research is to summarize the results of hydrometeorological monitoring at the Nizhny Novgorod NPP site and its vicinity, which was launched by the Scientific & Industrial Association Gidrotekhproekt in 2011. The description of stationary observation points and examples of calculation of regime hydrological and meteorological characteristics are given. It is noted that the accumulation of observation data series over a long period of time, which make it possible to identify potential climate changes in the study area, is of great importance.

“…The instability of meteorological conditions can lead to significant negative consequences for human life and activities [12][13]. For forecasting and diagnosing meteorological conditions, it is advisable to use a territorial geo information system (GIS) [14][15][16], which will make it possible to make a timely and accurate forecast of environmental conditions.…”
One of the fundamental principles of sustainable development is sustainable electric power supply to consumers. The implementation of this principle is possible only with guaranteed safety of electric power networks. Forecasting of possible threats is one of the tools to reduce the fault rate of technological equipment. Emergency shutdowns are largely caused by meteorological factors. The instability of meteorological conditions can lead to significant negative consequences for human life and activities. For forecasting and diagnosing meteorological conditions, it is advisable to use a territorial geo information system (GIS). Safety management processes requires the process creation with predefined properties. For safety management, it is recommended to use synthesisbased models, which makes it possible to apply an approach based on solving the inverse management problem. As a result of the study, the safety management technology of electric power networks based on the use of GIS was developed. The research considers threats caused by the impact of meteorological factors. In particular, some problems arising under the influence on the control object of environmental temperature, wind, and thunderstorm were analyzed. The presented simulation of safety management processes allows to guarantee reliable and safe electric power supply to consumers.
“…The relevance of studies of explosions of fuel-air mixtures is due to the significant risk of accidents associated with them and the need to predict the extent of possible dangerous consequences when designing hazardous production facilities and developing additional safety measures [1,6,7,8]. When considering the processes of explosive transformations of fuel assemblies, special attention is paid to possible modes of combustion of an explosive cloud and consideration of factors determining the conditions for the onset of detonation or deflagration with a corresponding speed of flame front propagation [9].…”
The article reviewed one of the known accidents with explosions of fuel assemblies both in domestic and foreign enterprises, and analyzed the causes of its occurrence. With the help of several computational methods, the sizes of the zones of air-shock wave (ASW) were determined and compared with the “real” data, and situational plans with zones of destruction were constructed.
