Abstract

The invention discloses a method and system for monitoring the radioactivity of main loop coolants in a nuclear power plant. The system comprises a gamma-ray detector, an energy spectrum analyzer anda computer. According to the system disclosed by the invention, through the gamma-ray detector based on a semiconductor detector, a scintillation detector and a coincidence circuit, on-line continuousgamma-energy spectrum measurement of the main loop coolants in the nuclear power plant is realized, further the analysis of the radioactivity of characteristic nuclides in the main loop coolants is completed, and the work that a worker samples for performing measurement and analysis in a laboratory can be replaced; workload of the worker is reduced, the exposure dose of the worker is reduced, andthe monitoring efficiency is improved; and in addition, through the scintillation detector and the coincidence circuit, the influence of Compton scattering rays and environmental background gamma-rays on low-energy nuclide recognition and a main nuclide activity analysis result in the main loop coolants can be effectively reduced, and the accuracy of the measuring result is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of radioactivity monitoring, in particular to a method and system for monitoring radioactive activity of coolant in a main circuit of a nuclear power plant. Background technique [0002] The radioactivity of the coolant in the main circuit of the nuclear power plant directly reflects the integrity of the fuel cladding, the first barrier of the defense-in-depth system of the pressurized water reactor nuclear power plant. Once the fuel cladding is damaged, the radioactive fission products in the gap between the fuel cladding and the pellets will leak into the main loop coolant circulation loop, and the radioactive activity level of the main loop coolant will increase, directly leading to an increase in the overall radioactivity level of the nuclear power plant. It will have an extremely adverse impact on the staff of the nuclear power plant, the surrounding environment and the public. [0003] Existing nuclea...
