Abstract:For nuclear power plant, station black-out (SBO) is the events that contribute significantly to the level-I core damage risk. For an SBO, it is assumed that both the off-site power and on-site diesel generators fail to supply alternating-current power for the plant systems. SBO induced steam generator tube rupture (SGTR) is a concern because the steam generator (SG) tubes are parts of the reactor coolant pressure boundary and failure of the SG tubes may lead to fission products bypassing the containment. The S… Show more
