ANALYSIS OF OIL SPILL FIRES IN NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS

Abstract
An analysis of a fire in a compartment of a nuclear power plant (NPP) needs deterministic and probabilistic models. The deterministic model aims at to estimate the time to damage of either the pumps or the cables in the compartment. A probabilistic model is also necessary because the fires can be of various sizes and at different locations in the fire room. Further, oil spill sizes were assumed to be equally probable and their locations were assumed to be independent. Calculations are made using the computer codes which use probabilistic as well as deterministic models as a tool for safety engineers to analyse the fire development in compartments.
