Serious accident full-scale simulator successfully developed

After the Fukushima nuclear accident in Japan, countries around the world have paid more attention to the research and training of severe accidents on the ultra-design basis of nuclear power plants. After two years of efforts, the training center of Daya Bay Nuclear Power Operation Company of China Guangdong Nuclear Power Co., Ltd. built the first phase of the nation’s nuclear power by relying on the second phase of Lingao Nuclear Power. Serious accident full range simulator." The equipment can provide serious accident training for senior operating personnel, emergency support and command personnel of nuclear power plants, and can be used for serious accident emergency drills, guideline verification, and mitigation measures.

The equipment consists of main control room, model software, digital instrumentation simulation system, severe accident analysis program, 3D/2D graphic display terminal, teaching console, etc. It can simulate all kinds of serious accidents in real time, showing core melting and pressure vessel failure. Failure of containment, failure of spent fuel, and environmental release of radioactive products are all serious accident processes and phenomena.

The successful research and development of the "Serious accident full-range simulator" will help strengthen the overall response capability of China Guangdong Nuclear Power Co., Ltd. and enhance the safety management level of the power plant.
