Objectives:
After completion of this course, the participants will be able to better recognize how the EPR systems work together based on the design principles. This course gives an overview of the EPR design, taking into account safety and design principles relevant throughout all stages of the EPR lifecycle: design, planning, construction, commissioning, periodic testing and maintenance.
Content:
- Safety requirements, rules and regulations, and design principles of the EPR
- Reactor coolant system
- Main components of the reactor coolant system with design principles
- Primary-to-secondary-side heat transfer, operating principle of the steam generator
- Overview of the water-steam cycle with main components
- Auxiliary power supply and emergency power concept
- Design principles and power supply requirements
- Overview of the I&C architecture, design requirements of the operational and safety I&C
- Accident control using safety systems
- Design of the safety injection systems for loss-of-coolant accidents (LOCA)
- Reactor auxiliary systems
- Design and operation of the Chemical and Volume Control System (CVCS) coolant purification, coolant treatment and storage systems, and gaseous waste processing system
- Concept of storage and handling of radioactive waste
Target Group:
Engineers and technicians involved in the design, construction, commissioning or maintenance phases of new-build projects.
