Based on the PWR nuclear power plant, the sources of radioactive noble gas from core fission and the model of the gas movement in the waste gas system are analyzed, focusing on the delay state analysis of the isotopes of Kr and Xe creeping through the activated carbon. This paper proposes a design method of delay bed mass calculation based on system flow rate, dynamic adsorption coefficient and the holdup time back calculated from the annual radioactive release of waste gas system. Finally the section and dimensions of delay beds are determined based on the flow velocity recommended in ANSI/ANS 55.4. This calculation method lays the theoretical foundation of the waste gas system design and the dimension design for activated carbon delay bed.

Magnetorheological (MR) disk-type isolating dampers are the semi-active control devices that use MR fluids to produce controllable squeezing force. In this paper, the analytical endeavor into the fluid dynamic modeling of an MR isolating damper is reported. The velocity and pressure distribution of an MR fluid operating in an axisymmetric squeeze model are analytically solved using a biviscosity constitutive model. Analytical solutions for the flow behavior of MR fluid flowing through the parallel channel are obtained. The equation for the squeezing force is derived to provide the theoretical foundation for the design of the isolating damper. The result shows that with the increase of the applied magnetic field strength, the squeezing force is increased.

Anchoring structures, systems and components to concrete is a significant activity in the design and construction of a nuclear power plant. Early in this decade the Concrete Capacity Design method (CCD) was adopted by the American Concrete Institute (ACI) for use in the structural design for both commercial and nuclear facilities. This design method and associated qualification tests brings new challenges to designing efficient means for anchoring to concrete structures. Although the CCD method provides guidance on many aspects of concrete anchorage there are a few areas, pertinent to nuclear power plant construction, that are not covered or require significant interpretation of the most recent codes. This paper will focus on the design of shear lugs used to resist significant lateral loads. Results from laboratory tests of shear lugs are presented. These full scale tests considered the interaction of tension and shear loads on the performance of shear lug assemblies. Recommendations for the efficient use of shear lugs are provided.

broken rock zone is the main reason for the convergence of surrounding rock deformation, and its thickness not only is a reflection of many factors which influence the stability of surrounding rock, but also is the results of the interaction of many factors, a comprehensive classification index. Roadway support design based on classification result of broken rock zone, has a solid theoretical foundation, and the field application effect is remarkable.

The free standing racks are spent fuel storage racks with self-sustained structure without fixation to the pit floor or pit walls. If a free standing rack receives a force to move it due to an earthquake, the force acting on each member of the rack is reduced in compared to the floor-anchored racks owing to sliding of the free standing rack. Now it is planned to exchange the existing floor-anchored racks with the free standing racks to secure higher seismic resistance. In previous studies, efforts were made to establish a behavior analysis model that allows for evaluation of sliding and rocking behaviors of free standing racks and to make out a seismic design method based on an evaluation technique to evaluate, in a conservative manner, vibration test results of full-scale free standing racks. The free standing racks which consist of connected eight racks are designed with this seismic design method. It was confirmed that the free standing racks have enough seismic resistance by performing evaluation using the basic seismic motion and making an analysis on beyond the design event.
