Abstract

Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) nuclear power plant sump operator assisted program is applied to monitor unrecognized leaks of reactor coolant. It is very crucial to leak before break (LBB) protection and greatly affects the operational safety of nuclear reactors. In this paper, an algorithm of sump level operator assisted support program is proposed. Compared with the algorithm of traditional PWR, this algorithm adds the identification of working conditions and re-builds the leakage flow calculation method, which eliminates interference factors to the extent practical and improves the accuracy of the calculation results of unrecognized leakage flow.
