摘要
The current Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary (RCPB) leak detection systems in Japanese PWR plants consist of the air cooler condensate measuring system, the containment sump level monitoring system, the containment air particulate monitoring system and the containment radioactive gas monitoring system. These systems were reassessed in the course of the study on an application of the LBB concept and mainly the leak detection capabilities were discussed in this reassessment. The leak detection capabilities of these systems are described and, through comparison of these systems, appropriate methods to detect small leakage, more than 3.8 kg/min (1 gpm), are shown.
