Selected results of VUJE research projects (with possibility of extrapolation to WWER-1000 power plants) and prospects for forthcoming period

The Institute centres on research and development in the field of operating modes of WWER nuclear power plants, of control systems and the use of computer technology, of equipment for the control and maintenance of nuclear power plants, of personnel training, radioactive waste processing, etc. The major results of research work since 1977 are given, as are their application at the Bohunice V-1 nuclear power plant and their economic benefit. The said results shall be followed by projects in which the Institute will be involved up to the year 1990 and whose results will serve all nuclear power plants built in Czechoslovakia and equipped with WWER-440 and WWER-1000 reactors. The research activity of the Institute yields hihg economic benefit. (Ha)
