Box 12277, Research Triangle Park, NC 27709, Telephone (919) 549-8411, e-mail: standardsisa.org.The ISA Standards and Practices Department is aware of the growing need for attention to the metric system of units in general, and the International System of

6、 Units (SI) in particular, in the preparation of instrumentation standards. The Department is further aware of the benefits to USA users of ISA standards of incorporating suitable references to the SI (and the metric system) in their business and professional dealings with other countries. Towards t

7、his end this Department will endeavor to introduce SI-acceptable metric units in all new and revised standards to the greatest extent possible. The Metric Practice Guide, which has been published by the American Society for Testing and Materials as ANSI designation Z210.1 (ASTM E380-76, IEEE Std. 26

8、8-1975), and future revisions, will be the reference guide for definitions, symbols, abbreviation, and conversion factors.It is the policy of ISA to encourage and welcome the participation of all concerned individuals and interests in the development of ISA standards. Participation in the ISA standa

10、r, 1973. The assignments, considered a priority project needing urgent and prompt action, was given to Subcommittee SP-67.03 chaired by M. J. Kimbell during the May 20, 1974 Boston ISA Power Conference. The subcommittee performed a literature search of leak test standards and current nuclear power p

29、 the leak location, the leakage rate, duration, and the nature of the flow path permitting the leakage. Through-wall cracks or flaws are the most difficult to detect and monitor because they can occur at any RCPB location. This type of leak is also of most concern because the leak may develop from s

30、ome unpredicted combination of internal defects and external stresses in a nonisolatable portion of the RCPB.5.1 Leakage classificationsA principal concern in leakage monitoring is the capability to discriminate between unidentified leakage from the RCPB and leakage from identifiable sources into th

31、e containment. Being able to discriminate allows more rapid and reliable assessment of plant operating conditions. The following leakage classifications, as used in this standard, facilitate identification of leakage sources and interpretation of leakage data:12 ISA-S67.03-19825.1.1 Identified leaka

32、gea) Leakage into collection systems, e.g., pump seal or valve packing leakage that is collected and measured, orb) Leakage into the containment which meets all of the following conditions:1) The leaks have been specifically located and the rate quantified.2) The leaks are not cracks or flaws in the

33、 RCPB.An example of b) above is a quantified leakage of component cooling water into thecontainment.5.1.2 Unidentified leakageLeakage into the containment which is not classified as identified leakage.5.1.3 Intersystem leakageCoolant leakage across RCPB passive barriers such as heat exchanger tubes

34、or tube sheets into other closed systems. Such leakage is not normally released to the containment atmosphere and is a separate classification.5.1.4 Other leakageAny leakage not from the RCPB and outside of the reactor containment structure, if not covered by the above classifications. An example of

35、 such leakage could be leakage from steam or feedwater lines outside the containment structure of a BWR plant. A summary of such leakage sources and typical detection methods frequently used is given in Appendix A of this standard.5.2 Potential identified leakage sourcesVariations in plant designs d

36、o not allow a single definitive check list of all potential leakage sources. However, probable leakage sources can be identified during plant design and appropriate leakage detection, measurement and collection (leakoff) systems provided. Collection and isolation, to the extent practical, of leakage

37、 from identified sources enhance the monitoring capability for unidentified leakage. The following are some of the more common types of leakage sources that can be easily identified:a) Dynamic seals such as valve stem packing, pump drive shaft seals and control rod drive gland seals.b) Static seals

38、such as the reactor head pressure seals, equipment gaskets and valve seat seals in lines connected to the RCPB.c) Pressure relief systems such as pressure relief valves, rupture disks and safety relief valves.d) Passive interface boundaries with the RCPB such as instrument bellows, diaphragms and Bo

39、urdon tubes, thermometer wells and heat exchanger tubes.ISA-S67.03-1982 136 General design requirementsThis standard is not intended to replace applicable handbooks and texts, such as References (11) and (12), which provide detailed design and analytical techniques. Suggested methods and procedures

40、for developing required design information are given in the references and appendices to this standard.6.1 Principal monitoring systems for unidentified leakageAt least three dissimilar, diverse, and independent principal methods of monitoring coolant leakage from the RCPB to the containment shall b

41、e provided. One of these methods shall be sump level and/or sump flow monitoring. Other acceptable methods are identified in Section 7 and Ta ble 1.6.2 Coolant leakage detection system performanceThe sensitivity and response characteristics for each of three principal leak detection monitoring syste

42、ms shall be shown by design calculations or performance tests to be capable of indicating and alarming a 1 gpm (3.8 liters/min) leakage increase within one hour. It is recognized that some systems other than sump monitoring may not be capable of meeting this requirement during certain normal plant o

43、perating conditions. In these cases, these systems shall be designed for leakage sensitivity that is as high as reasonably achievable. When identified leakages are superimposed on unidentified leakages the above sensitivity requirements shall apply also.6.3 Safety classificationThe RCPB leak detecti

44、on systems covered in this standard are non-nuclear safety systems or monitoring instrument systems.6.4 Collecting and measuring identified leakagesSeals, relief systems, and other probable sources of leakage shall be identified. Leakage collection and measurement systems shall be provided for suffi

45、cient identified sources to limit the expected leakage to the containment atmosphere to the extent practical. The residual uncollected liquid leakage shall not prevent unidentified liquid leakage monitoring systems from meeting Section 6.2 requirements.Leakage to the primary reactor containment from

46、 identified sources shall be collected or otherwise isolated so that:a) The flow rates from identified leaks are monitored separately from unidentified leaks.b) The total flow rate from identified leaks can be established and monitored with a sensitivity capable of detecting a 1 gpm (3.8 liters/min)

47、 leakage increase within 1 hr for PWR plants and 2 gpm (7.6 liters/min) leakage increase within 1 hr for BWR plants.6.5 Monitoring intersystem leakageProvisions shall be made to monitor systems connected to the RCPB through passive barriers for indications of intersystem leakage. Acceptable methods

48、include radioactivity monitoring and water inventory monitoring. See Appendix A for additional information.14 ISA-S67.03-19826.6 System availabilityThe RCPB leakage detection systems shall be designed to operate whenever the plant is not in cold shutdown condition.6.6.1 Ambient conditionsMonitoring

49、system shall be designed to maintain specified accuracy and performance features for the range of ambient temperature, humidity, and radiation levels that are expected at the component locations during normal plant operations.6.6.2 Seismic eventsThe sump monitoring system and at least one of the other diverse monitoring channels provided shall be demonstrated to be acceptable for the design requirements after any seismic event for which plant shutdown is not required, i.e., less than an operating basis earthquake. The guidelines of IEEE Standard 344, Reference (6), may be used for seis
