Vyhovskiy chumack_kpi@ukr.net V.V. Chumak chumack_kpi@ukr.net S.S. Tsyvinsky chumack_kpi@ukr.net <p><em>Turbogenerators were and remain the most unreliable element at nuclear power plants in Ukraine. The most dangerous disturbances in the operation of turbogenerators of the TVV type is complete or partial blockage of the hollow conductors of the stator winding. The systems of operational control and technical diagnostics today, in a number of cases, cannot cope with the identification of these phenomena. The complex application of adequate mathematical models, indications of the standard thermal control system and new diagnostic features give the opportunity with sufficient accuracy for practical purposes to detect blockages in the hollow conductors of the stator windings of these turbogenerators. The aim of the work is to develop a program for calculating the three-dimensional temperature field in the rods of the stator winding of a turbogenerator of the TVV-1000-2U3 type, taking into account the temperature field of the stator core, to carry out a test calculation and to compare the experimental and to calculated data. The problem is solved with the help of the finite difference method using the integro-interpolation method.</em></p> 2023-03-09T00:00:00+02:00 Copyright (c) 2023 http://energy.kpi.ua/article/view/271992 MODERN TECHNOLOGIES FOR INCREASING THE ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL EFFICIENCY OF ENERGY PRODUCTION 2023-01-14T18:40:29+02:00 G.B.

Horskyi witalij3d@gmail.com <p><em>Offers a means of increasing the efficiency of the cycle by reducing par asitic loads such as the excess air compressor load and of capturing&nbsp; energy that might otherwise be wasted. However, this is not always the most effective way of increasing overall efficiency of energy conver sion. For large gas turbine based plants in particular, the best way of improving efficiency is to add a steam turbine bottoming cycle, creat ing a combined cycle power plan. A combined cycle plant is simply what its name suggests. Instead of relying on a single thermodynamic cycle to convert energy into electricity the plant uses more than one. These piggy-back one another&nbsp; with the first cycle using the highest temperature&nbsp; thermodynamic working fluid, followed by a second using the intermediate temperature fluid . In fact combined cycle plants with more than two cycles are not used commercially although they are theoretically possible. Much more significant for the modern power generation industry is the addition of a bottoming cycle to a gas turbine power plant. In this case the bottoming cycle is usually a steam turbine cycle, with heat from the gas turbine exhaust exploited to raise steam. This is the most common combined cycle power plant. It would be possible to add a third cycle to exploit the low grade heat remaining after steam generation. This could be achieved with a closed cycle turbine such as an organic Rankine cycle. Such turbines can exploit low grade heat to produce electricity and are used in some geothermal plants where the temperature of the geothermal reservoir is relatively low. However, it is unlikely to be economically viable to add this third cycle to a modern combined cycle plant. To determine the technological energy intensity of such stations, the whole cycle of energy production was considered. The main characteristics of combined cycles are given and the technological energy intensity of energy supply is calculated. The main advantages and disadvantages of these installations are given, and also the comparison of steam turbine and steam and gas stations is made with definition of possible potential at replacement.</em></p> 2023-03-09T00:00:00+02:00 Copyright (c) 2023 http://energy.kpi.ua/article/view/272087 RELAP5-CFX COUPLING MODULE: TESTING ON SIMPLE THERMOHYDRAULIC MODELS 2023-01-15T18:22:11+02:00 Y.

To check the coupling technology, the module was tested on simplified models containing serially connected RELAP5- and CFD-models of horizontal pipes, as well as on a closed loop. In view of the further use of the interface module on a full-fledged model of the VVER-1000, testing is performed for three main interface types: "input flow", "output flow" and their combination "input/output flow" on a closed loop.

The tasks that can and should be solved by energy storage systems in distribution networks are considered, as a result of which the expediency of forming hybrid storage systems is substantiated.

Fedorov komandirVA@i.ua <p>The main causes of destructive steam and gas explosions with catastrophic environmental consequences during the accidents at Fukushima-Daiichi NPP were the loss of tightness of the passive safety systems of the reactor residual fuel removal safety system and the critical residual heat removal function in the spent nuclear fuel holding tank . The main lesson of the Fukushima accident for the environmental safety of Ukraine's nuclear power industry is the need to anticipate the possibility of unlikely emergency events with catastrophic environmental consequences. Such unlikely events include: flooding of the nuclear power plant site, complete long-term blackout, steam-gas destructive explosions, joint action of external extreme phenomena. Based on this, the following lessons of the Fukushima accident were formulated for the nuclear power industry of Ukraine regarding unlikely emergency events with catastrophic environmental consequences: lesson 1 - the need for reliable isolation of diesel generator rooms from external extreme events; lesson 2 - the need to improve strategies and methods of managing accidents with complete long-term blackout and lesson 3 - the need to determine the conditions of steam-gas explosions. The lessons of the Fukushima accident and the known results of the analysis of explosive conditions in nuclear power plants with WWER determine the need to improve methods for modeling the conditions and consequences of steam and gas explosions at the dynamic stages of emergency processes.The lessons of the Fukushima accident and the results of the calculated modeling of accidents with complete long-term power outages of nuclear power plants with WWER determine the need to improve strategies and ways to prevent and manage accidents with complete long-term power outages.A promising approach is the integrated use of additional passive safety systems to ensure the function of feeding steam generators with turbopumps (area for high pressures) and natural circulation (area for low pressures).</p> 2023-03-09T00:00:00+02:00 Copyright (c) 2023 http://energy.kpi.ua/article/view/272097 METHOD OF IDENTIFYING HAZARDS AND PREDICTING THE EMERGENCY SITUATIONS IN CASE OF SOIL CONTAMINATION BY HEAVY METAL COMPOUNDS 2023-01-15T19:26:39+02:00 І.
