Investigation of Ageing Effects Using the Probabilistic Safety Assessments - Proceedings of the European Workshop on Probabilistic Safety Assessment
JRC – IE Petten organized with the support of the Kernkraftwerk Gösgen-Däniken, Switzerland, an EC Workshop on Investigation of Ageing Effects using the Probabilistic Safety Assessments.
The goal of the workshop was to present and discuss the developed methods and approaches and the results obtained for application of reliability and PSA techniques on evaluation and management of NPP ageing.
For the units which have approached the end of initial design lifetime and especially for those which are planning to extend the lifetime, it has to be demonstrated that the plant safety level will remain adequate until the end of operation, and to do that, is necessary to evaluate the effects of ageing phenomena on the plant performance and safety.
The workshop contained a general session, dedicated to activities of different organizations in PSA field, and a technical session, focused on the results obtained in application of reliability and PSA techniques on evaluation and management of NPP ageing.
Based on the presentations and participants experience, discussions about topics considered interested to be developed further were organized. The arising conclusions are presented.
