摘要

A new approach has been developed to systematically identify opportunities for safety enhancement of first-of-a-kind nuclear reactor designs. The identified opportunities may include reduction in the frequency or severity of traditional design basis events, as well as optimum allocation of reliability and safety enhancement contribution among different design features. The developed approach has three primary elements: (1) a comprehensive set of Safety and Reliability Engineering (SRE) principles that have been compiled to serve as general guidelines, (2) an SRE-oriented risk model and analysis tools to identify and evaluate hazards, vulnerabilities and the proper defense against them, and (3) a risk-informed decision framework that takes into account uncertainties in the current state of knowledge. The approach also has provisions to ensure compliance with regulatory philosophy and safety goals, while avoiding cost of unnecessary research and development and cost of rework. This paper describes the approach, with particular attention given to: (1) design options that enhance risk manageability during plant operation, (2) completeness of the search for hazard sources and vulnerable areas in the design that could be susceptible to failure, (3) systemic uncertainties resulting from the limited domain of applicability of calculation methods, data and experiments, and (4) identification and early disposal of irrelevant issues in order to focus on a manageable number of viable safety enhancement options. The paper also presents examples illustrating SRE application to actual reactors.
