-For decreasing an unexpected shutdown of Nuclear Power Plants, Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power co.(KHNP) has developed Single Point Vulnerability(SPV) of NPPs since 2008. SPV is the equipment that cause reactor shutdown & turbine trip or more than 50% power rundown due to its malfunction. Newly built Nuclear Power Plants need to develop the SPV list, so performed the job which analyse equipment failure effect for SPV selection for 1 year. To develop this, Failure Mode Effect Analysis(FMEA) and Fault Tree Analysis(FTA) methods are used. As results of this analysis, about 900 equipment are selected as SPV. Thereafter those are going to be applied to Nuclear Power Plants to enhance equipment reliability..
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
