Safety of confinement of Super Phenix: MARS test

Creators

Description

The protection of people and property must be assured by every situation around an industrial power plant. That is why the French Commissariat a l'Energie Atomique has defined the size of the confinement of Super Phenix to withstand the worst highly hypothetical accident. This report presents the study of the strength of the confinement carried out on a reactor mock-up. The latter is presented in film. The solution which have been adopted for the problem encountered are emphasized. Finally consequences are examined

Abstract (French)

La protection des personnes et des biens doit etre assuree, dans toutes les ciconstances, pour une installation industrielle. C'est pourquoi le Commissariat a l'Energie Atomique a dimensionne le confinement de Super Phenix pour contenir l'accident de reference bien que sa probabilite d'occurrence soit infime (10-7 par reacteur et par an). Ce rapport presente l'experience realisee sur maquette fidele du reacteur. Celle-ci est presentee dans un film: les solutions adoptees pour resoudre les problemes poses par la simulation sont d'abord examinees. On examine ensuite les consequences
