[0027] Currently, the commonly used Nuclear Horizontal Modular Storage (NUHOMS) system is a heat dissipation system that transfers the decay heat of spent fuel to the dry storage canister (DSC) through conduction, radiation, and natural convection. The heat is then transferred from the double-layered welded and sealed storage canister to the surrounding air via cooling channels in the horizontal storage module-hot (HSM-H). Related technologies include methods for evaluating the availability of NUHOMS systems under extreme weather conditions. In particular, extreme weather events such as typhoons, earthquakes, and floods may cause displacement or deformation of the concrete modules, leading to deformation of the storage canister. Furthermore, extreme weather can affect the shielding function of the NUHOMS system, resulting in increased radiation dose.
[0028] The emergency assessment method, system, equipment, and media for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants provided in this application have significant beneficial effects in the field of dry nuclear horizontal modular storage systems. By integrating natural disaster risk assessment, radiation dose monitoring, and effective multiplication factor control, a complete emergency assessment and response system is formed, improving the overall efficiency of nuclear power plants in responding to disasters.
[0029] To illustrate the technical solution described in this application, specific embodiments are provided below.
[0030] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the dry nuclear horizontal modular storage system 10 provided in an embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the dry nuclear horizontal modular storage system 10 includes a first concrete module 101, a second concrete module 102, a third concrete module 103, and a fourth concrete module 104. It is understood that the distribution and arrangement of the concrete modules within the system are based on considerations of safety and storage efficiency, ensuring that the system can operate stably under different conditions.
[0031] Please refer to the following: Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the concrete module 100 provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 As shown, the concrete module 100 includes at least a cooling channel 110 and a storage container 120.
[0032] It is understood that the number of concrete modules included in the dry nuclear horizontal modular storage system 10 in this application embodiment is merely an example. Those skilled in the art can design more or fewer concrete modules according to actual conditions, and this application does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0033] Understandably, the cooling channel 110 is designed to transfer the decay heat of spent fuel through natural convection, radiation, and other means, thereby maintaining a stable temperature in the dry nuclear horizontal modular storage system 10. The storage container 120 holds the spent fuel, ensuring its safe storage. The rational design of the layout and structure of these core components enables the entire dry nuclear horizontal modular storage system 10 to effectively dissipate heat.
[0034] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the implementation process of the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants provided in this application embodiment. Figure 3 As shown, the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants includes at least the following steps: S100: Obtain information on natural disasters; S200: Obtain the type and risk parameters of natural disasters based on the natural disaster information; S300: In response to the risk parameters being higher than the response threshold, obtain the radiation dose of the concrete module; S400: Obtain the effective multiplication coefficient of the storage container based on the radiation dose; S500: In response to the effective multiplication coefficient being higher than the effective multiplication coefficient threshold, perform a storage container transfer operation.
[0035] The emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants provided in this application embodiment is applicable to, for example... Figure 1 The dry nuclear horizontal modular storage system 10 shown is Figure 2The concrete module 100 shown is included in the dry nuclear horizontal modular storage system 10, which includes a cooling channel 110 and a storage container 120.
[0036] S100: Obtain information on natural disasters.
[0037] In this embodiment of the application, the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants includes obtaining information on natural disasters. It is understood that the types of natural disasters in this embodiment mainly include typhoons, floods, and earthquakes.
[0038] Specifically, the emergency assessment method for dry-storage spent fuel in nuclear power plants can be connected to the nuclear power plant's main control system to obtain relevant natural disaster information. Understandably, the main control system of a nuclear power plant typically integrates various monitoring devices and sensors to monitor environmental parameters in real time, including meteorological conditions and seismic information. This data can be provided to the emergency assessment method to enable a rapid response in the event of a natural disaster.
[0039] Specifically, it is also possible to obtain early warning information for regularly occurring meteorological disasters, such as typhoons, by connecting to the websites of meteorological bureaus and local governments. It is also possible to obtain information on seismic activity, including the time, location, and magnitude of earthquakes, by connecting to the website interfaces of earthquake monitoring agencies. Furthermore, it is possible to obtain information such as flood levels through hydrological departments.
[0040] Understandably, the purpose of obtaining information on natural disasters is to enable timely early warning, monitoring, and assessment of potential disaster risks, thereby taking appropriate measures to ensure the safe operation of nuclear power plants.
[0041] S200: Obtain the type and risk parameters of natural disasters based on natural disaster information.
[0042] In this embodiment of the application, the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants obtains the type and risk parameters of natural disasters based on natural disaster information.
[0043] In this embodiment of the application, the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants analyzes the collected natural disaster information through specific algorithms and models to identify the specific type of disaster, such as typhoon, flood or earthquake.
[0044] In this embodiment of the application, once the disaster type is determined, the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants will continue to conduct risk assessments to obtain risk parameters. It is understood that risk parameters include information such as typhoon level, flood intensity, and earthquake intensity.
[0045] In this embodiment, environmental impact parameters are obtained based on the type of natural disaster and risk parameters. It is understood that when the type of natural disaster is a typhoon, the environmental impact parameter is wind speed. It is understood that when the type of natural disaster is a flood, the environmental impact parameters are static water pressure and water flow velocity. It is understood that when the type of natural disaster is an earthquake, the environmental impact parameters are horizontal acceleration and vertical acceleration.
[0046] Specifically, for typhoons, weather stations or other meteorological monitoring equipment can be used to monitor wind speed in real time. For floods, hydrological stations, water level gauges, and other equipment can be used to monitor water levels and flow velocity. For earthquakes, seismic monitoring instruments and accelerometers are used to monitor the horizontal and vertical acceleration of the earthquake. Understandably, in the actual operation of nuclear power plants, specialized monitoring equipment and sensors are typically deployed to ensure timely acquisition of environmental impact parameters during natural disasters. Furthermore, nuclear power plants also establish corresponding monitoring systems to monitor and record these parameters in real time, in preparation for emergency response.
[0047] S300: In response to a risk parameter exceeding the response threshold, obtain the radiation dose of the concrete module.
[0048] In this embodiment, the emergency assessment method for dry-storage spent fuel in nuclear power plants obtains the radiation dose of the concrete module 100 in response to risk parameters exceeding a response threshold. It is understood that the response threshold is 477 km / h when the natural disaster type is a typhoon. When the natural disaster type is a flood, the response threshold is 15.24 m (50 ft) of static water pressure and 4.572 m / s (15 ft / s) of water flow velocity.
[0049] It is understood that the dry nuclear horizontal modular storage system 10 provided in this application embodiment was designed with the effects of typhoons (hurricanes) and their loads in mind. The design is based on the most severe typhoon (hurricane) loads specified in NUREG-0800-(8.19) and (8.30). Furthermore, the effects of typhoon-generated projectiles are considered to ensure the system can withstand this additional challenge. It is understood that NUREG-0800-(8.19) and (8.30) are part of the Standard Review Plan for the Review of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants: LWR Edition, which primarily covers guidance on typhoon and hurricane load analysis for pressurized water reactor (LWR) nuclear power plants.
[0050] It is understood that the dry nuclear horizontal modular storage system 10 provided in this application embodiment also takes into account the possible impact of tsunamis, floods and earthquakes on the dry nuclear horizontal modular storage system 10 during its design.
[0051] In this embodiment, a neutron dose equivalent rate meter or a gamma dose rate monitor may be installed at the concrete module 100. The neutron dose equivalent rate meter or gamma dose rate monitor can be used to monitor the radiation dose of the dry nuclear-level modular storage system 10. It is understood that these monitoring instruments can measure the radiation levels of neutrons or gamma rays in the surrounding environment, thereby obtaining radiation dose data. This data can be transmitted to the system's control center for analysis and evaluation by operators.
[0052] It is understood that the radiation dose in the embodiments of this application can be measured in terms of dose rate. Dose rate represents the radiation energy per unit area or unit volume per unit time, typically measured in units of hour or second. Specifically, dose rate includes neutron dose rate and gamma-ray dose rate. Neutron dose rate measures the energy transfer rate of neutron radiation, typically measured in units of area or volume per unit time, and gamma-ray dose rate measures the energy transfer rate of gamma-ray radiation. Gamma-ray dose rate measures the energy transfer rate of gamma-ray radiation, typically measured in units of area or volume per unit time, and gamma-ray dose rate measures the energy transfer rate of gamma-ray radiation, typically measured in units of area or volume per unit time.
[0053] Understandably, by installing a neutron dose equivalent rate meter or a gamma dose rate monitor at the concrete module 100, real-time monitoring of the radiation dose of the dry nuclear-level modular storage system 10 can be achieved. This provides crucial data support for subsequent steps in the emergency assessment methodology, ensuring the system can respond promptly in abnormal situations.
[0054] In other embodiments, once a neutron dose equivalent rate meter or gamma dose rate monitor at the concrete module 100 detects a radiation dose exceeding a preset radiation dose threshold, the emergency assessment method for dry-stored spent fuel in a nuclear power plant enters the response phase. In this phase, the emergency assessment method automatically identifies and confirms an abnormal state of the dry-level modular nuclear storage system 10. This abnormal state may indicate that the system is experiencing abnormal radiation levels, which could be due to problems such as blocked cooling channels or component damage.
[0055] Understandably, emergency assessment methods for dry-storage spent fuel at nuclear power plants determine the severity of anomalies based on pre-defined standards and strategies, and decide on appropriate emergency response measures. These measures may include immediately shutting down system operations, activating backup cooling mechanisms, and notifying operators. By responding quickly to abnormal radiation doses, the system can minimize the impact of anomalies on the system and the environment, thereby ensuring stable system operation.
[0056] Understandably, the emergency assessment method for dry-storage spent fuel in nuclear power plants can record and store relevant information about abnormal states, including the time, location, and radiation dose level of the anomaly. This information is crucial for subsequent emergency management and analysis. By accurately identifying abnormal states, the system can provide a precise basis for subsequent emergency management plans and measures, thereby effectively addressing potential risks and problems.
[0057] Specifically, in the embodiments of this application, the radiation dose threshold is a neutron dose rate or gamma-ray dose rate greater than or equal to 250 millirems per hour (mRem / hr).
[0058] S400: Obtain the effective multiplication coefficient of the storage container based on the radiation dose.
[0059] In this embodiment of the application, the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants also includes obtaining the effective multiplication factor of the storage container 120 based on the radiation dose.
[0060] Specifically, the nuclear reaction process within the storage container 120 can be obtained by inputting the radiation dose acquired at various points into a pre-set radiation field model of the storage container. The effective multiplication coefficient of the storage container 120 can then be obtained through the nuclear reaction process within the storage container 120.
[0061] S500: In response to the effective proliferation coefficient being higher than the effective proliferation coefficient threshold, a storage container transfer operation is performed.
[0062] In this embodiment of the application, the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants also includes performing a transfer operation of storage container 120 in response to the effective multiplication coefficient being higher than the effective multiplication coefficient threshold.
[0063] In this embodiment of the application, during spent fuel storage, the emergency assessment method for dry-stored spent fuel in nuclear power plants continuously predicts the storage status of the spent fuel, including the effective multiplication factor (K). eff The effective proliferation coefficient threshold is 0.95.
[0064] It is understandable that when K effWhen the value exceeds 0.95, the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel at nuclear power plants will be used to relocate storage container 120 in accordance with the response procedures. This includes moving spent fuel storage container 120 from its current location to a safer location to ensure the safe storage of spent fuel.
[0065] Specifically, the spent fuel assemblies inside storage container 120 can be cut up in preparation for subsequent disposal, ensuring that the spent fuel assemblies can be safely handled during the disposal process. It is understood that the safe disposal of the cut spent fuel assemblies is to ensure the safe operation of the nuclear facility, including moving the spent fuel assemblies to a specific disposal area to ensure that they do not pose a threat to the environment.
[0066] Understandably, the effective proliferation coefficient (K) eff K is a parameter describing the fission chain reaction in nuclear reactions. It represents the average number of fission neutrons produced per fission neutron in a fission chain reaction under steady-state conditions; it can also be understood as the fission chain reaction multiplication factor. When K... eff When K is greater than 1, it indicates that the nuclear reaction is in a supercritical state, and each fission neutron in the fission chain reaction produces, on average, more than one new fission neutron, and the reaction will continue to grow. eff When K equals 1, it indicates that the nuclear reaction is in a critical state, where each fission neutron in the fission chain reaction produces an average of one new fission neutron, and the reaction is self-sustaining. eff A value less than 1 indicates that the nuclear reaction is in a subcritical state, where each fission neutron in the fission chain reaction produces, on average, less than one new fission neutron, and the reaction gradually weakens. In the field of spent fuel storage, to ensure the safety of nuclear facilities, maintaining K0... eff It is essential below 0.95.
[0067] In this embodiment of the application, the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in a nuclear power plant further includes obtaining the degree of damage to the concrete module 100. Then, based on the degree of damage, information on damaged components is obtained, and based on this information, a repair sequence for the damaged components is determined. Finally, the damaged components are repaired according to the repair sequence.
[0068] Specifically, the extent of damage to the concrete module 100 can be assessed through visual inspection, instrument measurement, or other appropriate methods to determine the potential damage, including but not limited to cracks, breaks, and displacement. Subsequently, based on the damage assessment, the specific components affected are identified, and information such as the type, location, and extent of damage is recorded. Next, a repair priority is established based on the information about the damaged components. Typically, components that have the greatest impact on the safety of the concrete module 100 are addressed first. Finally, the damaged components are repaired or replaced accordingly. Repair methods may include filling, curing, reinforcement, or replacement.
[0069] Understandably, the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants can ensure that damaged components are repaired in a timely manner after a natural disaster, thereby ensuring the integrity and safety of the nuclear power plant system.

Figure 4 As shown, the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants includes at least the following steps: S510: obtaining radiation dose and a radiation field model of the storage container; S520: simulating the nuclear reaction process inside the storage container based on the radiation field model of the storage container; S530: obtaining the neutron production rate and neutron loss rate based on the nuclear reaction process; S540: obtaining the effective multiplication coefficient based on the neutron production rate and neutron loss rate.
[0071] S510: Obtain radiation dose and radiation field model of storage container.
[0072] In this embodiment of the application, the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants also includes obtaining the radiation dose and the radiation field model of the storage container 120.
[0073] It is understood that the dry nuclear-level modular storage system 10 includes a neutron dose equivalent rate meter or a gamma dose rate monitor. The radiation dose of the dry nuclear-level modular storage system 10 can be monitored through the neutron dose equivalent rate meter or the gamma dose rate monitor.
[0074] Understandably, multiple monitoring devices can be installed at different locations within the dry nuclear horizontal modular storage system 10 to obtain the radiation dose of the dry nuclear horizontal modular storage system 10. Specifically, the monitoring device locations can be set at 100 meters from the storage area of the dry nuclear horizontal modular storage system 10, at the bird netting at the front of the concrete module 100, at the center line of the door opening cover of the concrete module 100, and at the rear shielding wall of the concrete module 100.
[0075] S520: Simulate the nuclear reaction process inside the storage container based on the radiation field model of the storage container.
[0076] In this embodiment of the application, the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants also includes simulating the nuclear reaction process inside the storage container based on a radiation field model of the storage container.
[0077] It is understandable that the radiation field model of the storage container can be a pre-set radiation field model of the storage container. By inputting the radiation dose obtained at each point into the model, the nuclear reaction process inside the storage container 120 can be obtained.
[0078] S530: Obtain the neutron production rate and neutron loss rate based on the nuclear reaction process.
[0079] In this embodiment of the application, the emergency assessment method for dry storage of spent fuel in nuclear power plants also includes obtaining the neutron production rate and neutron loss rate based on the nuclear reaction process.
