원자로냉각재펌프(RCP)의 설계요건에 관한 연구

A Study on the Design Requirements of Reactor Coolant Pump

The design requirements of reactor coolant pump is very important factor for the safe operation and cooling of Pressurized Water Reactor. This study is concerned with the design requirements of reactor coolant pump based on the Young Gwang Nuclear Power Plant Unit 3 & 4. We concluded that the PWR system designers shall have an accurate information on the RCP design requirements such as kinetic energy of pump rotating parts, rated flow and head, minimum allowable slope of H-Q curve and minimum correctable head through this study. This study provide the system designer with a guideline and a basic background on the RCP design requirements.
