PWR modifications balance and influence on reactor operation

  • 1. Electricite de France (EDF), 75 - Paris (France)

Description

Thirteen years of standardized reactors commissioning and operating has permitted to optimize the reactors particularly by modifications. Until 1985, 500 modifications have been made on the 900 MWe reactor conception. The realization of so more modifications has disturbed the reactor operation. In 1986 it is becoming evident to better structure the modifications by realization of reference states for all reactors of the same standardized plant series

Abstract (French)

Treize annees de mises en service et d'exploitation d'un parc de reacteurs standardises (370 annees-reacteur) ont permis d'optimiser l'outil de production, en particulier par la mise en oeuvre de modifications materielles. Jusqu'a 1985, plus de 500 modifications ont ete apportees a l'etat de conception initiale des centrales de 900 MW au fur et a mesure des demarrages. Cependant, la realisation de tant de modifications, independamment les unes des autres, a perturbe l'exploitation. En 1986. Il est apparu necessaire de mieux structurer la demarche en fixant comme objectifs pour les tranches d'un meme palier des etats de reference
