Abstract

The aim of this case study was to demonstrate the benefits of using ageing probabilistic safety analysis (PSA) results in risk-informed decision process. First stage of the activities was aimed on the development of dataset which reflects age-dependent reliability behaviour for selected components using plant-specific, VVER specific and generic data. The second part describes the integration process of time-dependent reliability dataset in PSA model, quantification and comparison between aging (APSA) and base case PSA decision making results. Practical insights and conclusions are also presented. The report was prepared by the Nuclear & Radiation Safety Center (NRSC), Yerevan, Armenia, in cooperation with the Institute for Energy and Transport, EC Joint Research Centre, Petten, Netherlands, in the framework of the EC JRC Ageing PSA Network Task 8 activities.
