Description

This paper introduces the research and development of radioactive effluent calculation software of PWR. Based on AP1000, CAP1400 and EPR, 19 calculation examples were designed to test and verify the software. The test results are compared with the PWR-GALE software and EPR design parameters. The results show that the software is suitable for the evaluation calculation of radioactive effluent source term of pressurized water nuclear power plant with strong expansibility, and it can provide reference for the evaluation of gas-liquid effluent source term of various new reactor types in China.
