Towards Safe Long-Term Operation of Reactor Pressure Vessels
This publication summarizes the long term operation (LTO) conditions in European NPPs and provides recommendations on reactor pressure vessel (RPV) irradiation surveillance based on the work performed in the Work Package 7 “Surveillance Guidelines” of the LONGLIFE international project [1]. The LONGLIFE project "Treatment of Long Term Irradiation Embrittlement Effects in RPV Safety Assessment" was 50% funded by the Euratom 7th Framework Programme of the European Commission. The project, coordinated by the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf, successfully finalized in Long2014. Figure 1 shows the different activities carried out by the project partners (16 organizations).
