Abstract
원자력발전소는 냉각재상실사고(LOCA)와 같은 과도상태시 pH 조절을 통해 격납건물의 핵분열생성물(요오드) 제거 능력을 유지한다. 이와 더불어 격납건물 내부의 스테인레스강 기기들의 응력부식균열(Stress Corrosion Cracking)을 방지하고 알루미늄 또는 아연 부식에 의한 수소생성을 최소화할 수 있기 때문에 살수 및 집수조냉각수의 화학조건(pH) 조절능력이 요구된다. 현재 원전은 LOCA시 능동형 살수첨가제인 NaOH를 사용하여 격납건물 살수 및 집수조냉각수의 pH를 조절하도록 설계되어있다. 본 논문에서는 LOCA시 집수조냉각수의 pH를 분석하고, 살수화학조건 pH 관련 최신규제요건인 표준심사지침(SRP) 6.5.2에 따라 핵분열생성물제거상수 및 제염계수를 계산하였다. 분석결과, 격납건물집수조 pH는 8.09~9.67로서 설계기준을 만족한다. 그리고 격납건물살수계통에 의한 핵분열생성물 제거상수 및 제염계수는 원전 내환경기기검증을 위한 방사선환경 평가의 입력으로 제공된다. Nuclear Power Plants require the control ability of chemical condition (pH) because pH control during transient accident such as LOCA makes an able the fission product removal capability to be maintained, stress corrosion cracking of stainless steel equipment to be prevented and the production of hydrogen by aluminum and zinc to be minimized. An NPP is designed to control the pH of containment spray and sump coolant using the spray additives 30% NaOH in the event of loss of coolant accident. In this paper, the pH of sump coolant of an NPP during LOCA was analyzed and the fission products removal constant and decontamination factor were calculated according to Standard Review Plan 6.5.2 related to spray chemical conditions of pH. The calculated pH value of recirculation mode using the computer code corresponds to 8.09~9.67, which meets the chemical environment regulation requirements. The fission product removal capability caused by containment spray system is performed to provide input to radiation analysis.
