摘要
APR+ has been developed in Korea since 2007. APR+ adopts various advanced safety features including passive auxiliary feedwater system, four emergency diesel generators. Through the implementation of the advanced designs, APR+ increased the safety to the world best level of evolutionary reactors. The full power core damage frequency or containment failure frequency decreased significantly comparing to APR1400 that is base model of APR+. However, low-power shutdown risk has not been improved substantially. This paper suggests several design changes that optimize low-power shutdown risk. Based on the design alternatives, this paper discusses risk effectiveness of the proposed design including various factors, e.g. equipment reliability, human error, training, procedure and so on.
