    Description: The use of spectrometric information from the ASKRO automated station to increase the reliability of identification of the low-activity technogenic radionuclides 131 I, 137 Cs, and 140 La in the atmospheric boundary layer is examined. The Matros statistical algorithm for processing data with the spectrometer operating in the radiometric mode makes it possible to classify in 45 min the minimum activity 5–10 Bq/m 3 with probability ~0.7; false detection comprises ≤0.01 over 100 h. The low identification reliability for lowactivity radionuclides, the relatively long time required for obtaining results, and the impossibility of processing the data obtained during periods of precipitation limit the use of the algorithm. It is shown that spectral processing by the method of the minimum makes it possible to identify in 15–30 min with probability ~1 the minimum activity of 137 Cs and 140 La – 11 and 6 Bq/m 3 , respectively – with false detection 〈10 –4 .

    Description: An accelerator-blanket system with a proton accelerator and lead-bismuth coolant for transmuting Np, Am, and Cm is examined. The proton accelerator power is 10 MW, the proton energy 1 GeV and the blanket power 330 MW with blanket subcriticality ΔK = 0.05. It is shown that the use of an accelerator-blanket system in symbiosis with operating VVER-1000 reactors makes it possible to lower the radioactivity of the wastes about 20-fold and to satisfy the principle of radiation-migration balance of activity over a ~500-yr cool-down period with subterranean disposal. In terms of radiation and the technological characteristics of the spent fuel and wastes, this system does not have any special advantages for incinerating Np, Am, and Cm with fast reactors in a closed fuel cycle with U, Pu, Np, Am, and Cm recirculated and natural uranium as the makeup fuel. The accelerator-blanket system presented here can be regarded as an effective specialized setup for incinerating Np, Am, and Cm accumulated in the thermal reactors of present-day nuclear power.

    Description: The objectives of this work are to investigate stream flow in smooth and intensified flow sections and to determine the numerical values of the flow characteristics. The hydrodynamic structure of throttled flow, observed stream flows, vortex and stagnant zones, which depend on the geometric shapes of the flow sections, are presented and described. The numerical values of some flow parameters and optimal geometric dimensions of the throttle channels with different methods of flow throttling are determined. The data obtained will make it possible to develop flow regulators for NPP for high coolant parameters, which ensure stable and reliable operation in startup, normal and emergency regimes of a nuclear reactor.

    Description: An important element in making decisions about choosing a preferred NPP project is the evaluation of the economic risk associated with macroeconomic uncertainty. Different parameters can be used to classify the risks that must be taken into account when calculating the efficacy of building a NPP. They must be viewed as the quintessence of the general, investment, and project risks considered in conventional power generation projects as well as specialized risks inherent in nuclear power. A method of cumulative quantitative determination of the risks of such projects based on global experience is presented here. It can improve the existing approaches to the calculation of the main economic indices of NPP construction projects.

    Description: The radiation dose to the public due to atmospheric emissions from the Rostov NPP is calculated using a point conservative approach and a complex of migration and dosimetric models. The radiation exposure pathways and the individual radionuclides in the NPP emissions are ranked according to their contribution to the total dose.

    Description: The kerma in biological tissue with gadolinium under irradiation by epithermal neutrons in a special channel of the VVR-SM reactor at the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan is determined. The neutron kerma rate is found to be $ K_n^{\mathrm{b}.\mathrm{t}} $ = 1.35 · 10 –4  Gy/sec for biological tissue and $ K_n^{\mathrm{Gd}} $ = 3.1 · 10 –7  Gy/sec for 1 μg of natural gadolinium in 1 g of biological tissue.

    Description: A method of calculating the probability of a leak occurring in the main joint of the reactor and the probability of the head detaching from the vessel body of VVER-TOI as a result of stud-bolt failure and the computational results are presented. The stresses in the stud bolts are calculated taking account of their redistribution in intact stud bolts for different numbers of failed stud bolts. In the calculations of the stud bolt failure probability, the statistical characteristics of the mechanical and strength properties of the material, the characteristics of the means of nondestructive flaw detection in the material, and the probability that defects are missed during checks are taken into account.

    Description: A scheme is proposed for purification of natural-uranium hexafluoride in an intermediate product stream of a cascade in which low-enrichment uranium is obtained in the main product stream. It is shown that effective purification to remove the isotope 234 U can be accomplished in one or two stages with purified stock with the natural 235 U concentration or purified depleted uranium obtained in the intermediate product. A diluent for high-enrichment uranium with a several-fold lower separative work compared with its production from depleted wastes from separative production can be produced from these products. In addition, these products make it possible to obtain high-quality low-enrichment uranium with low 234 U content.

    Description: The results of an investigation of the operating regime of a nuclear power plant with VVER-1000 with actuation of accelerated preventative protection at power 100% N nom with one of two turbo pumps switched off are presented. The modeling was performed using the improved accuracy RELAPSCDAPSIM/Mod3.4 code and a corresponding model for the No. 2 unit of the Khmelnitsky NPP. It is shown that the actuation of emergency protection based on the fact that the three main circulation pumps are switched off because of a drop in the feed water in the steam generators cannot be avoided. On the basis of the results obtained, it is proposed that for the second half of the fuel run an emergency protection signal instead of an accelerated preventative protection be immediate generated when one of the turbo pumps is switched off at power level 〉95% N nom ; this will make it possible to secure more forgiving temperature regimes for fuel and equipment, avoid additional thermal cycling loads, and prevent violation of the safe operating limits on the basis of the feed water level in the steam generators.
