Calculation uncertainty of distribution-like parameters in NPP of PAKS

  • 1. NPP of Paks, P. O. Box 71, H-7031 Paks (Hungary)

Description

In the reactor-physical point of view there were two important events in the Nuclear Power Plant of PAKS in this year. The Russian type profiled assemblies were loaded into the PAKS Unit 3, and new limitation system was introduced on the same Unit. It was required to solve a lot of problems because of these both events. One of these problems was the determination of uncertainty of quantities of the new limitation considering the fabrication uncertainties for the profiled assembly. The importance of determination of uncertainty is to guarantee on 99.9% level the avoidance of fuel failure. In this paper the principles of determination of calculation accuracy, applied methods and obtained results are presented in case of distribution-like parameters. A few elements of the method have been presented on earlier symposiums, so in this paper the whole method is just outlined. For example the GPT method was presented in the following paper: Uncertainty analysis of pin wise power distribution of WWER-440 assembly considering fabrication uncertainties. Finally in the summary of this paper additional intrinsic opportunities in the method are presented. (Authors)
