“…Currently, to the extent possible, passive engineering safety features are adopted to deal with design basis accident or to prevent and mitigate the severe accident (Juhn et al, 2000;Tujikura et al, 2000;Zang et al, 2001;IAEA, 2009;Krepper and Beyer, 2010;Zhang et al, 2012).…”

Abstract:The design philosophy, overall performance, safety, and economy of three typical generation III (GIII) pressurized water reactors, EPR, AES2006, and CAP1400, are analyzed comprehensively in this paper. Based on comparison with and the lessons learned from the Fukushima nuclear accident, we forecast a future reactor for China's commercial nuclear power plant. Moreover, we put forward important technological fields of GIII nuclear power plants to which attention should be paid, including the enhancement of defense in depth, defense against extreme external events, severe accident mitigation, design simplification and standardization, improvement in economic competitiveness, load following capability, and adaptation to climate change.

“…However, future designs consider ''safety'' to be a step factor over ''economy''. Broadly, three categories of new reactor developments can be foreseen (Juhn et al, 2000).…”

“…Then, the problem becomes that of how to quantify the probability of these events for both "nominal" passive systems (e.g. the ESBWR operating in nominal conditions) (Juhn et al, 2000;Rohde et al, 2008) and "emergency" passive systems (e.g., accumulators, isolation condensers, etc.) (Chung et al, 2008).…”
