• 2020:12 Assessment of the QT-COOL coolant channel module against the PBF RIA 1-2 experiment

  SSM perspective Background The fuel rod analysis program SCANAIR has been developed by IRSN (Institut de Radioprotection et de Sûreté Nucléaire) for analysis of reactivity initiated accidents (RIA) in light water reactors. The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) has access to SCANAIR in exchange for annual contributions for its further development. This ensures a possibility...

• 2020:07 Fibre Clogging in Nuclear Power Plants

  SSM perspective Background Emergency core cooling systems in boiling- and pressurized water reactors use strainers. Their purpose is to out foreign material suspended in the cooling water so this material does not reach the reactor. After the 1992 event at Barsebäck nuclear power plant when the strainers of the emergency cooling system was clogged due to fibers in the cooling water, all...

• 2022:08 Geophysical surveys on sub marine land- and rock slides and on alpine glaciers

  SSM perspective Background The future climate evolution and the impact it might have on a repository for radioactive waste is important when assessing the long-term safety. In a project funded by SSM (Holmlund et al. 2016), bathymetric data from the Southern Quark area between Sweden and Åland, provided by the Swedish Maritime Administration, were analysed, as well as terrestrial data from...

• 2022:03 Effect of Neutron Irradiation on the Oxidation and Corrosion of Austenitic Stainless Steels

  SSM perspective Background Reactor pressure vessel internal components of austenitic stainless steel located close to the core are subject to a high neutron flux. Irradiation by fast neutrons induces changes in the material that affect microstructure, mechanical properties and microchemistry. These changes eventually lead to an increased susceptibility to irradiation assisted stress corrosion...

• 2022:15 Strukturer och ledarskap för organisatorisk funktionalitet som främjar säkerheten genom ett kärnkraftverks olika faser och övergångarna däremellan

  SSM perspektiv Bakgrund Kärnkraftsindustrin står inför en rad utmaningar framöver, exempelvis avseende åldrande reaktorer, generationsskifte i personalstyrkan, bristande kompetensåterväxt, politiska beslut och konkurrens från andra energislag. Två svenska anläggningar står dessutom inför utmaningen att avveckla delar av verksamheten samtidigt...

• 2017:09 Evaluation of the Swedish participation in the Nordic Nuclear Safety Research (NKS) collaboration

  Background NKS is a Nordic collaboration promoting cooperation on nuclear safety and emergency preparedness research. The research program is primarily funded by Nordic radiation safety authorities and responsible ministries. The main purpose of NKS is to finance joint Nordic activities and initiatives, including seminars and workshops, technical reports, exercises and scientific articles.

• 2017:05 Robust structural verification of pressurized nuclear components subjected to ratcheting, part two – stress-strain curves for cyclic elastoplastic analysis.

  Background Pressurized components in nuclear applications that are subjected to cyclic loading may exhibit progressive deformation, so called structural ratcheting. If the component is made out of a material that are deformation hardening, it may also exhibit material ratcheting. The combined effects of structural- and material ratcheting are not taken into account in the methods and material...

• 2017:07 Dimensionering av nukleära byggnadskonstruktioner (DNB)

  Bakgrund Strålsäkerhetsmyndigheten (SSM) och de svenska tillståndshavarna har tidigare i ett samfinansierat forskningsprojekt tagit fram anvisningar för dimensionering av nukleära byggnadskonstruktioner, DNB. Rapporten som är baserad på Eurokoderna publicerades som SSM rapport 2014:06. DNB har sedan dess genomgått en generell uppdatering och publicerades...

• 2017:22 Effect of weld repairs on residual stresses in nickel base dissimilar metal welds

  Background The driving force for crack growth near welds in nuclear application piping may arise from weld residual stresses. Experience from nondestructive examination show that cracks in dissimilar metal welds are often found near weld repairs. The repair welding may affect the residual stresses through e.g. increased tensile stresses and increased plastic straining on the surfaces of the...
