Abstract

Safeguard modeling is developed for the successful operations in the nuclear power plants (NPPs). The characteristics of the secure operation in NPPs are investigated using the network effect method which is quantified by the Monte-Carlo algorithm. Fundamentally, it is impossible to expect the time of terror incident exactly. So, the random sampling for the event frequency is a reasonable method including the characteristics of network effect method incorporated with the zero-sum quantification. The performance of operation with safeguard is the major concern of the study. There are three kinds of considerations as the neutronics, thermo-hydraulics, and safeguard properties which are organized as an aspect of safeguard considerations. The result, therefore, can give the stability of the operations when the power is decided. The maximum value of secure operation is the 12.0 in third month and the minimum value is 1.0 in 18th and 54th month in 10 years. So, the stability of the secure power operation increases 12 times higher than the lowest value in this study. This means the secure operation is changeable in the designed NPPs and the dynamical situation of the secure operation is shown to the operator.
