Potential to participate in the complete energy market
High temperatures (750-1000oC)
Helium coolant; Graphite moderated
Small reactor units (~100 - 650 MWth)
To be deployed as multiple modules
Low power density (typically 3-6 W/cc compared to 60-100W/cc for
LWRs)
Two basic design variations – Prismatic and pebble bed design
HTGRs Characteristics
Significantly improved safety potential:
Coated particle fuel contain almost all fission products for the
expected operating and postulated accident temperatures in a
modular HTGR.
The failure mechanisms are decoupled and totally independent.
One coated particle failure cannot lead to the failure of a
neighbouring CP, as it is only driven by the maximum fuel
temperature (and a statistical process)
A failure also has no effect on the cool-ability of the fuel as a
failure will not change the heat removal path.
Core design and operating parameters ensure large margins
No credible events can lead to early large release - No core melt
of an all ceramic core
Decay heat removal by natural means only – can lose all the coolant
and external cooling (station blackout)
Most transients are slow (develop over hours and days) and no
operator actions are needed
Special attention needed to limit water ingress and to mitigate
massive air ingress

NPP design – Identify and document the gaps in the technology and
the state-of-the-art of CFD in respect to
being considered an essential ingredient in the design process of
advanced nuclear reactors • Participants:

Reports (TECDOCs) – Possibility of a Phase 2 CRP if sufficient
interest in more CFD benchmarks, e.g. ABWR Lower
Plenum Temperature Distribution (discuss on Friday in LWR
group)
New CRP on Probabilistic Safety Analysis (PSA) for Multi-Unit,
Multi-Reactor Sites
• At many nuclear sites world-wide, several NPPs, either of the
same or of different types, designs, or age, are co-located on a
single site.
• Regulations generally recognize the potential for multiunit
accidents, PSA of NPPs have mainly focused on estimating the risk
arising from damage to a single NPP.
• Safety assessments based on deterministic and probabilistic
approaches in which the risk at a site with multiple reactors can
be represented by summing up the risks of individual units.
• simplified approach with several limitations ignores complex
interactions during a severe
event impacting a multiunit site.
Fukushima accident lesson learned: Need to improve PSA
methodologies when applied to multi-unit, multi-reactor- type
nuclear sites.
Several methods have are being explored around the world to extend
or “translate” per-unit PSA results to multi-unit site PSA results,
such as core damage and large release frequencies.
This CRP will bring together experts from LWR and PHWR MSs to
benchmark their practices, compare assumptions and results and
recommend improvements to the "Framework and Process for Multi-unit
Site PSA" (parallel NSNI Activity).
Example – Atucha, Argentina: • 2 unique PHWRs operating • 1 SMR
under construction • 1 CANDU planned • 1 PWR possible
One NPP site with five different reactor types
New CRP on METHODOLOGY FOR DEVELOPING PIPE FAILURE RATES FOR
ADVANCED WATER-COOLED REACTORS • Objectives:
– Increase the knowledge and understanding of the methodology in
MSs on how to predict pipe failure rates for advanced WCRs that
utilize the current state-of-knowledge regarding the five decades
of extensive and well documented operating experience data on
piping system components in operating WCRs
– Provide specific guidelines in consideration to the effect of new
materials on piping reliability including the prediction of aging
factor effects
– Develop common set of benchmarks
• 1st CM: – February 27 – March 2, 2017 – 4 MSs and OECD
participants developed a detailed proposal for
launching the CRP in 2018

Introduction on Nuclear Cogeneration:

Energy Market
Non-Electric Applications & Nuclear Cogeneration
Nuclear Cogeneration for Climate Change Mitigation (1)
Current Status:
with total net electrical capacity of 392,116 MWe
This is equivalent to annual reduction of 1 - 2 Million tonnes of
CO2 emissions
Based on the type of fossil fuel would be used to cover this
thermal demand
Assume: ~ 25% recovery of waste heat
Nuclear Cogeneration for Climate Change Mitigation (2)
The need of Desalination?
Desalination: need energy
– Low quality steam (MED or MSF, or RO)
– Off-peak power (elect. For RO)
43
– Quality industrial water
Improves overall efficiency
Nuclear Desalination: Sustainable Development
• Over 500 reactor years of operation
• The recovery of nuclear heat from present NPP is technically
feasible • The primary heat transport line can be designed with low
thermal losses even for
long distances, Recent developments in piping insulation allows
transfer of heat for 100 km with only ∼ 2% heat loss of the
transported power
• Heat recovery enhances plant efficiency, provides a high
energetic gain (+70%)
• The recovered heat is economically competitive
