Analysis of CEDM endurance test result for APR1400

  • 1. KAERI, Taejon (Korea, Republic of)

Description

The CEA traveling distance of APR1400 is expected to increase for the more than that of TGN/UCN, when mode K load following operation and 60 years life time are applied to the design. Thus it is necessary to perform the verification tests in reactor conditions to evaluate the endurance capability of the CEM of APR1400. In the present work, the CEDM motor was tested 2.2 times of 100,000 ft travel, its design lifetime in the APR1400 operation conditions. The motor operated normally at final stage of tests. At the completion of the test, all parts of the CEDM motor were disassembled for inspection and dimensional measurement. Severe wear were observed on the moving parts of the CEDM motor such as latch, pins, and on the teeth of the drive shaft
