Abstract

Abstract In the light of radioactive material leakage (due to containment bypass or failure) to the auxiliary building and its service compartments under severe accident circumstances, key techniques related to accident source terms in the nuclear emergency building were researched. During the research, the source-term diffusion and migration patterns were simulated in the building compartments, including the simulation of the gradual diffusion and decay process (driven by circulating air) of fission-derived gases and aerosol toward each compartment. Besides that, by taking a M310 unit at Fangjiashan NPP as the application object, the scenarios of initial accidents of LB/MB/SB-LOCA, MSLB and SGTR were chosen to establish a real-time diffusion calculation model for in-building radioactive source terms under nuclear accident circumstances. While considering the circumstances before and after being intervened by accident mitigation measures, the concentration distribution of radionuclides in the auxiliary building and personnel total-exposure radiation dose rate were quickly assessed online, and a basis was provided for the visualization of radiation dosage and the assessment of received radiation dosage and injury & death hazards during personnel activities outside the main control room.
