2015:20 The effects of mild, acute hypoxia on cognitive performance
Room air with reduced oxygen levels that prevent materials to ignite and combust is a cost-effective and increasingly popular fire prevention method. For system safety reasons, the effects of hypoxia, that is, the lack of sufficient oxygen (that is, less than 21% oxygen which is the approximate oxygen level of normal air), on cognitive performance of persons working under such conditions are...

2016:04 Uncertainty assessment of the SCANAIR V_7_5 computer program in analyses of BWR reactivity initiated accidents
In this work, we assess uncertainties that can be expected in computational analyses of boiling water reactor reactivity initiated accidents with the SCANAIR V_7_5 computer program. The work is intended to supplement a similar uncertainty assessment, focussed on pressurized water reactor accidents, which is currently being organized as an international benchmark exercise by the OECD Nuclear...

2016:37 PARTRIDGE project: Review and evaluation of the probabilistic fracture mechanics code PRO-LOCA
Background The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) and the Swedish nuclear power plant owners have financed Inspecta Technology in Sweden to evaluate the PRO-LOCA code. It is a computer code, developed by Battelle in the USA, in which the leak- and rupture probabilities of piping in nuclear power plants are analysed. The pipe systems may contain the damage mechanisms fatigue and/or...

2014:52 Beständiga förändringar av säkerhetskulturen
Projektet har genomförts dels som en litteraturstudie och dels som en intervjuserie vid svenska kärnkraftverk. Litteraturstudien resulterade i en beskrivning av viktiga komponenter inom området säkerhetskultur, faktorer som anses möjliggöra eller förhindra att en god säkerhetskultur uppnås samt metoder och arbetssätt för att utveckla och förbättra...

2014:28 Numerical simulation of ductile crack growth in residual stress fields
The study has shown on the capability of the cell model in capturing the effects on ductile tearing from limited pre-load levels and a residual stress field. Some of the conclusions are as follows: No distinctive influence on the material fracture toughness is observed from pre-loading (work hardening), both tensile and compressive, at room temperature of 1.5 or 3 % total strain. The cell...

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...

2010:10 Översikt av nationell och internationell kravbild avseende brandskydd på kärnkraftverk och hur dessa tillämpas i svensk kärnkraftindustri
De nationella föreskrifterna gällande säkerhet på kärnkraftsanläggningar har historiskt behandlat brandskydd på en mycket övergripande nivå och den gällande kravbilden i tillståndshavares SAR, STF, ledningssystem har utvecklats under lång tid men på ett divergerande sätt. Vissa tillståndshavare har valt att följa internationella...

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...

2010:42 Using the EPRI Risk-Informed ISI Methodology on Piping Systems in Forsmark 3
In the SSM regulation SSMFS 2008:13, it is stated that the selection of locations for inspection of mechanical components shall be based upon the risk for core damage or the risk of release of radioactive substances. Both qualitative and quantitative measures of the relative risk are allowed to be used. So far only the PWRs in Sweden are using a quantitative procedure to evaluate the risk...
