Verification of Taishan NPP units 1 and 2 design availability factor
Description
Appendix 5L 2.1 nuclear island engineering and supply contract (NIEP) of Taishan NPP Units 1 and 2 requires: the average design availability factor is 92%, for a fuel cycle ≥18 months, over a 20 year-period. The performance assessment methodology in EUR Volume 2, Chapter 18 is analyzed and the error in the EUR formula is modified, which is validated by verifying Taishan NPP Units 1 and 2 design availability factor. It can be used as a reference for determining and evaluating the design availability factor performance indicator for a new nuclear power plant design. (author)
