Description

The impact on Reactor vessel level monitoring of CCMS due to uneven distribution of the core temperature in CPR1000 nuclear power plant is analyzed, the result shows that the uncertainty induced by the physical phenomenon, with the reactor coolant pumps keep in service, can be ignored. The impact on operator actions in SOP due to over-estimated reactor vessel level under total loss of feed water accident is also analyzed, the conclusion shows this over-estimation will not affect safety actions to be implemented in SOP.
