Abstract

S obzirom na razinu štete koja se može pojaviti ukoliko dođe do teške nuklearne nesreće, izuzetno je bitno dobro poznavanje postupaka kojima se ona može pravovremeno izbjeći. Kako je potapanje reaktora jedna od mjera za sprječavanje nuklearne nesreće, ovaj se rad bavi upravo analizom potapanja PWR tipa reaktora čija jezgra prethodno nije bila oksidirana ili je oksidirana u manjoj mjeri. Rad se bazira na podatcima dobivenim iz QUENCH-02 testa koji je proveden 1998. godine na Istraživačkom institutu u Karlsruheu. Radom je obuhvaćen opis samog postrojenja, eksperimentalni rezultati, opis programa RELAP5/SCDAPSIM koji je korišten u svrhu izvođenja računalne simulacije te na kraju i rezultati same simulacije. U zaključku je izneseno mišljenje o primjeni takvog programa u praksi s obzirom na dobivene rezultate.

Abstract (english)

Considering damage that can be caused by heavy nuclear disaster, it is very important to understand principles by which it can be stopped. Quenching of overheated core is one of the main measures for preventing nuclear disasters and this work is analyzing quenching of PWR type reactor that hasn’t been previously oxidized. Main source of data was QUENCH-02 experiment which has been conducted in 1998 on Research center in Karlsruhe. Description of the facility, experimental results, RELAP5/SCDAPSIM code, which was used for simulation, as well as results of simulation, are all given in this document. In conclusion, opinion about RELAP5/SCDAPSIM general usage was given regarding to results of the simulation.
