Results showed variations in both the HTO and NE-OBT concentrations in the vertical profile. The HTO concentrations generally decreased firstly and then increased with the increasing depths, but the trend was not significant. The NE-OBT concentrations in the surface soils(0–5 cm) were considerably lower than those in the deep soils(5–25 cm) at all the sites. The NE-OBT/HTO ratios also show a variable vertical profile, initially increasing and then decreasing with increasing soil depth.Both the HTO and NE-OBT concentrations decreased with the increasing distance to the HWRs in deep soil layers(5–25 cm), revealing that the released tritium from the NPP affected the spatial distribution.展开更多

The purpose of system performance monitoring is to identify early performance degradation of system and equipment in time,evaluate the overall health of system, and carry out corrective actions in a timely manner. Performance monitoring also has the corresponding experience feedback. The paper introduces the process of system monitoring program development. In the end,the paper takes an example of the turbine control fluid system( GFR) in a domestic nuclear power plant. The example shows the process is good for the analysis.展开更多

The tritium concentration in precipitation in Shanghai during 2014-2015 was determined. Values ranged from 0.68 ± 0.04 to 4.11 ± 0.39 Bq/L, and it showed a decreasing trend compared with historical data; however,the values were slightly higher than the natural background tritium level. Additionally, the tritium concentration shows a seasonal variation: It was higher in autumn and winter and lower in summer and spring. A comparison of concentrations in precipitation in Shanghai and around the Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant reveals no correlation,implying that the nuclear power plant operations may not affect the environment of Shanghai. Thus, the raised tritium concentrations in Shanghai might be due to the effects of monsoons, spring leak, raindrop, or other activities that generate tritium there. Those activities may include chemistry research that uses tritium as a tracer.展开更多

A mesoscale model is proposed on the basis of the algorithm. In this model, the concrete consists of three parts, namely coarse aggregate, cement matrix and the interfacial transition zone (ITZ) between them. To verify the proposed model, a three-point bending beam test was performed and a series of two-dimensional mesoscale concrete models were generated for crack behavior investigation. The results indicate that the numerical model proposed in this study is helpful in modeling crack behavior of concrete, and that treating concrete as heterogeneous material is very important in fracture modeling.展开更多
