Study on Concept of Operations of Advanced Third-Generation PWR Nuclear Power Plant

The fundamental operational purpose of the nuclear power plant is the safe and effective generation of electricity keeping risk to the public, staff and the environment as low as reasonably practical. The concept of operations of advanced third-generation PWR Nuclear Power Plant is based on the existing second-generation nuclear power plant design, and puts forward the operation strategy and requirements for the overall operation goal of the third-generation nuclear power plant from the perspective of the top-level design of the power plant. It mainly includes the operation strategy under different operation modes of nuclear power plants, the operation strategy of human machine interface in control room, the working environment, the basic operation organization and the roles and responsibilities of operators. Good concept of operations can improve the level of plant safety control and monitoring in the control room, reduce the risk of human error of plant operators, promote the safe production of plants, and thus ensure nuclear safety.
