Material aspects of APWRs with respect to water chemistry and occupational doses
Description
The choice criterions of the APWR primary circuit material are reviewed from point of view of reduction of occupational doses and radioactive waste formation during the operation period and after the finishing of service life. The analysis includes aspects of the choice of optimal primary water chemistry, corrosion resistance of materials and preconditioning of primary circuit internal surfaces. The Czechoslovak experience in the influence of primary material composition onto the NPPs radiation situation is discussed and there is the comparison of experimental results with the calculations providing by means of the mathematical modelling of corrosion product transport in the NPP primary circuit.
