SUMMARY REPORT<br />

<strong>for</strong> <strong>Conduct</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Kozloduy</strong> <strong>NPP</strong><br />

<strong>Stress</strong> <strong>Tests</strong><br />

An emergency pump station directly be<strong>for</strong>e BPS-2 and 3 was built. The emergency pump<br />

station ensures independent water supply from the advance chamber <strong>of</strong> BPS-2 and 3 to cold channel<br />

after end curve 8.<br />

If due to some reason the spray pool function fails, <strong>for</strong> nuclear installation cooling<br />

ASSGEM-3,4 systems are used whose inventory tanks have backup power supply besides fire water<br />

and artesian wells water in the site.<br />

2.5 PROVISIONS MADE FOR PROTECTION AT RLE OF UNITS 5 AND 6<br />

The actual state and the operability <strong>of</strong> the equipment has been identified based on the review<br />

<strong>of</strong> the elements (components) seismic qualification and the method <strong>for</strong> per<strong>for</strong>mance <strong>of</strong> the seismic<br />

qualification <strong>of</strong> SSCs <strong>of</strong> seismic category 1 [44].<br />

2.5.1 Systems, structures and components (SSCs), required <strong>for</strong> bringing and maintaining <strong>of</strong><br />

units 5 and 6 in safe shutdown mode<br />

Based on the SSEL existing in the plant SSCs required <strong>for</strong> nuclear facility shutdown and<br />

maintaining in safe condition that need to remain operable during and after earthquake have been<br />

identified.<br />

The analyses per<strong>for</strong>med [44] are focused mainly on the reactor installation at power<br />

operation and specifically on the limits <strong>for</strong> ensuring integrity <strong>of</strong> the second protective barrier – fuel<br />

elements cladding. The stress tests <strong>for</strong> SFP cover respective structures at operations with SNF (the<br />

most adverse operational states allowable by the technical specifications), again considering the fuel<br />

elements cladding integrity.<br />

The elements seismic qualification has been reviewed having established the current status<br />

and operability <strong>of</strong> the equipment.<br />

All buildings and facilities related to the unit nuclear safety have been analyzed in the<br />

framework <strong>of</strong> Modernization Programme <strong>of</strong> Units 5 and 6, according to the new requirements <strong>for</strong><br />

seismic stability.<br />

2.5.1.1 Buildings<br />

Seismic stability <strong>of</strong> all safety related buildings and structures has been reviewed in the<br />

framework <strong>of</strong> modernization programme <strong>of</strong> Units 5 and 6 <strong>for</strong> site specific impact.<br />

Seismic qualification <strong>of</strong> the main civil structures <strong>of</strong> Units 5 and 6, Seismic category 1, has<br />

been per<strong>for</strong>med as follows:<br />

· Reactor building;<br />

· SFP-5,6;<br />

· Diesel-generator stations including underground tanks;<br />

· Auxiliary building. Liquid radioactive waste storage;<br />
