Safety related Calculations: accident scenarios including hydrogen generation, radiological calculations, fluid dynamics, and criticality

A1356

Framatome’s integrated and unified concept to improve the severe accident resistance and mitigation capacity of nuclear facilities. The full scope of analysis methods solves problems in the fields of fluid dynamics and thermal hydraulics. In the unlikely event of a severe accident large amounts of hydrogen may be released within the reactor containment, leading to a high concentration of combustible gas. An ignition of this gas mixture could exceed overpressure design values and jeopardize the integrity of the containment.

Safety in operation

You have to demonstrate that your plant’s systems and functions are fulfilling the requirements of safety authorities. Framatome provides safety analysis solutions to support you when reviewing your design requirements, including customer training. We also provide emergency preparedness, including emergency power supply, radioprotection, and fire protection solutions and expertise. In addition, we either propose safety system upgrades or demonstrate that the current design meets all new requirements.
