Dynamic Reliability Analysis by GO-FLOW for ECCS System of PWR Nuclear Power Plant

Abstract

This paper applies GO-FLOW methodology to analyze the dynamic reliability characters of the Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) of Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant during Loss Of Coolant Accident (LOCA). Comparing the analysis results with Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) shows a good consistency which proves that the GO-FLOW methodology has a good application future in system dynamic behaviour analysis. © Springer 2010.
