2014:18 Evaluation of the Halden IFA-650 loss-of-coolant accident experiments 2, 3 and 4
The analytical tools, which are fuel rod computer codes, that Quantum Technologies AB use and develop, contain models of several of the phenomena that are acting on the nuclear fuel (cladding temperature, fission gas driven pressure, strain and stress in the cladding, rod rupture, etc.) and how the separate effects interact in the complex integrated manner. The codes are under constant...

2014:09 Further Development of the Core Simulator CORE SIM: Extension to coupled capabilities for BWRs
The developed tool is fully MatLab based and requires a set of input data from a commercial static core simulator. The driving perturbation can be specified both as a perturbation in thermo-hydraulic parameters or directly as a perturbation in macroscopic cross-sections. As output, the 3-dimensional spatial distribution of the noise in coolant density, pressure, enthalpy, inlet velocity, fuel...

1991:08 The Potential Significance of Permafrost tothe Behaviour of a Deep RadioactiveWaste Repository
Permafrost is one of the scenarios that is being considered as part of the groundwater flow and transport modelling for the Project-90 assessment. It is included as one of the primary Features, Events and Processes (FEPs) which are being kept outside the PROCESS SYSTEM in the SKBjSKI scenario development project (Andersson at aI, 1989). There is a large amount of evidence that Sweden has...

2016:28 Fatigue fracture surface characterization and investigation
Background In a previous study (SSM research report 2015:38) fatigue experiments were performed on welded austenitic stainless steel piping components. The fatigue experiments offer an opportunity to examine the obtained fatigue cracks with an optical microscope. Objective The present study performs a fractographical examination of the obtained fatigue cracks with the aim of determine where...

2010:35 Probabilistic Safety Goals for Nuclear Power Plants; Phases 2-4 / Final Report
Safety goals are defined in different ways in different countries and also used differently. Many countries are presently developing them in connection to the transfer to risk-informed regulation of both operating nuclear power plants (NPP) and new designs. However, it is far from self-evident how probabilistic safety criteria should be defined and used. On one hand, experience indicates that...

2010:16 Guidance to Risk-Informed Evaluation of Technical Specifications using PSA
No guidance documents for risk-informed analysis and assessment of changes in Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCO:s) in TS (Technical Specifications) have been available in the Nordic countries. In the U.S. several guidance documents, primarily developed by the owners groups for PWRs and BWRs, exist. Guidance for analysis of TS changes in this report generally follows the U.S. Regulatory...

2011:19 Experimental evaluation of influence from residual stresses on crack initiation and ductile crack growth at high primary loads
Cracked components are usually subjected to loads causing both primary and secondary stresses, e.g. welding components. Engineering assessment approaches, such as the ASME XI code and the R6 procedure, are commonly used to conduct integrity assessment of such components. There has been an ongoing debate how to treat secondary stresses using engineering assessment methods. The nature of these...
