HAZOP-study on heavy water research reactor primary cooling system
- 1. Science and Research Branch of Islamic Azad University, Tehran (Iran, Islamic Republic of)
Description
By knowledge-based Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) technique, equipment malfunction and deficiencies in the primary cooling system of the generic heavy water research reactor are studied. This technique is used to identify the representative accident scenarios. The related Process Flow Drawing (PFD) is prepared as our study database for this plant. Since this facility is in the design stage, applying the results of HAZOP-study to PFD improves the safety of the plant.
