Kensington AvenueLa Grange Park, IL 60526or standardsans.orgForewordThis Foreword is not a part of American National Standard “Nuclear Safety DesignProcess for Modular Helium-Cooled Reactor Plants,” ANSI0ANS-53.1-2011.!The pur

20、pose of this standard is to provide nuclear safety criteria applicable tothe design of modular helium-cooled reactor MHR! nuclear power plants here-inafter referred to as “plants”!. To achieve this purpose, this standard provides aprocess that can be used todevelop MHR top-level nuclear regulatory s

21、afety criteria;identify safety functions, top-level design criteria, licensing-basis events, design-basis accidents, and methods for performing safety analyses;determine safety classification of systems, structures, and componentsSSCs!;identify safety-related SSC special treatment requirements and d

22、efense-in-depth DID! provisions;demonstrate the adequacy of DID by applying a risk-informed approach.This standard does not address plant security design requirements or criteria.MHR security design requirements, including design-basis threats, are designelements that may be brought into the plant d

23、esign process to address licensingrequirements of the national nuclear regulator. In general, both deterministicand risk-based approaches may be considered in the plant security design pro-cess. It is anticipated that MHR passive safety features and inherent safetycharacteristics together with the u

24、se of the risk-informed nuclear safety processherein will effectively support plant security design.This risk-informed process standard represents a new design approach for pro-fessional communities familiar with traditional, deterministic light water reactorLWR! design processes. These include plan

25、t architect0engineers, nuclear licens-ing, and risk assessment professionals. This process presents an opportunity toextend traditional use of probabilistic risk assessment as applied to LWRs toMHRs and to incorporate risk insights early in the design process. Two examplesarea!modeling long-duration

26、 nonequilibrium plant conditions andb!extensivequantification of event frequency and consequence, including uncertainty. Nu-clear professional communities should develop other complementary risk-informed, performance-based consensus processes that continue to address thechallenges presented with thi

27、s standard.In addition to designers, regulators, and the risk community, this standardprovides a tool for plant operators who use design processes to maintain licensedplant designs. Some uses of this standard, such as SSC classification, applybeyond initial plant design, procurement, and constructio

28、n into operations. Useof this standard for SSC classification also allows plant owner0operators tospecify special treatments over the life of the plant for procurement, application,testing, and maintenance commensurate with risk. This standard documents anestablished process that nuclear design orga

29、nizations can use to develop nuclearsafety designs. It is anticipated that sponsors and communities of MHR-baseddesigns will develop further specific designs with dependent standards thatintegrate these risk-informed characteristics. In any event, the fundamentalobjective of this standard is to prov

30、ide clear design process guidance subordinateto the MHRs fundamental design technology. Because the traditional LWR de-sign community is unfamiliar with MHR technology, it is expected that thisstandard will present the first non-LWR design process challenge.Consider the question of secondary contain

31、ment in LWRs. For high-temperaturegas-cooled reactors HTGRs!, fundamentally different approaches to retention ofradionuclides lead to differences in the design of the reactor building.iTo specify “containment” directly, as commonly used and interpreted for LWRs,would supersede the design development

32、 process of this standard. Therefore,that is not done. The design process provided in this standard is adequate aloneto assure that the containment of radionuclide safety functions is accomplished.For that reason, this standard does not specify discrete design applications thatthose familiar with ot

33、her reactor types, like LWRs, might expect. Rather, onlythe fundamental attributes that distinguish an MHR are provided. Those are theminimum set of design characteristics, agreed upon by this working group,which must be met for the use of this standard.This standard could reference documents or oth

34、er standards that have beensuperseded or withdrawn when the standard is applied. In that case, referencesin the sections! include statements that provide guidance on their use. Theformat of the standard provides a table at the end of each body of text thatsummarizes and provides succinct actionable

35、content required. The “Summary ofRequirements” tables at the end of each body of text provide that body of textsexplicit requirements. Users should evaluate the requirements with the tables atthe end of each body of text. In the event of a compliance question with thestandards requirements, evaluati

36、on should include the explicit body of text inthe standard. The tables should be used to evaluate compliance, in the event ofa question of compliance with the standards requirements.This standard was initiated in 1971 and released as N213, January 1974 Draft,“Nuclear Safety Criteria for the Design o

37、f Stationary Gas Cooled Reactor Plants,”for comment. Waning interest in gas reactors left that early deterministic stan-dard incomplete. Two LWR counterparts, ANSI N18.2-1973, “Nuclear SafetyCriteria for the Design of Stationary Pressurized Water Reactor Plants” redes-ignated ANS-51.1!, and ANSI0ANS

38、-52.1-1978, “Nuclear Safety Criteria for theDesign of Stationary Boiling Water Reactor Plants,” were completed and ap-proved. Revisions of both these standards were approved in 1983 adding a formof risk-based classification; however, all these documents remained essentiallydeterministic compilations

39、 of the state-of-the-art design from that era.The American Nuclear Society Gas-Cooled Reactor Design and Operation Sub-committee, ANS-28, was inaugurated in November 2003 and tasked with devel-oping ANS-53.1. The working group was quickly formed and began developmenton this standard in 2004. Use of

40、this standard does not supersede the responsi-bility to review and apply the top-level safety criteria TLSC! of the authoritiesin the country where the user plans to license, build, and operate MHRs!. Theusers of this standard are responsible to review and apply the TLSC set by theauthorities in whi

41、chever country the user plans to license, build, and operateMHRs!. This standard may also be used to support the preparation of an MHRsafety analysis report for the purpose of MHR licensing. When used for MHRlicensing, the standard does not provide the only basis for establishing theMHR safety and d

42、esign criteria. The designer also assesses the applicability ofthe existing body of technical licensing requirements and guidance for nuclearplant licensing in the particular country of application. In this regard, thedesigner determines the applicability, partial applicability, or nonapplicability

43、ofthese licensing requirements. The designer may also use this standard and othersupporting standards to determine what additional MHR licensing technicalrequirements are required for important technical design and safety aspects thatare not addressed by the existing body of technical licensing requ

44、irements andguidance.In light of the 2011 disaster in Japan at Fukushima Daiichi Units 1 through 4,the ANS-28 Subcommittee stresses that those events have been considered foriithis standard as well as they are known at this time. Furthermore, while thoseissues are being developed, as a process stand

45、ard, we do not anticipate that theprocess that this standard identifies will be changed at all. This standard doesnot exclude the use of any additional guidance or requirements to supplementthat information.The ANS-53.1 Working Group consisted of the entire ANS-28 Subcommittee ofthe American Nuclear

46、 Society. Members of ANS-28 who participated directly inthe development of this standard are as follows:J. K. August* Chair, 20072011; Vice Chair, 20032007!, CORE, Inc.M. A.
