Topical operating experience report on emergency core cooling systems and auxiliary/emergency feedwater systems

cover
Volume I: Main report - Framework Service Contract 939770
Topical studies are a major product of the European Clearinghouse providing in-depth assessment of safety significant events and generic safety issues. This is the first topical study from the European Clearinghouse on the topic of events related to Emergency Core Cooling Systems and Auxiliary/Emergency Feed Water Systems, taking into account recent events from nuclear power plants in Europe and world-wide. In this study, relevant events relating to the topic were identified and analysed. The results of this in-depth analysis of events from different countries with different types of nuclear reactors should enable the nuclear safety authorities of the EU Clear-inghouse Member States to apply the general findings to their respective nuclear installations. In total 21 high-level lessons learned have been derived from the selected events. These are discussed and grouped according to various criteria. Thus, this report pro-vides a structured set of generic lessons learned, which may be utilised by regulatory bodies.
