A Agência Internacional de Energia Atômica (IAEA - \"International Atomic Energy Agency\") vem incentivando o desenvolvimento de sistemas passivos de refrigeração em plantas nucleares visando a simplificação e o incremento da confiabilidade em funções essenciais de segurança nos projetos de uma próxima geração de reatores nucleares refrigerados a água. O principal fundamento desses sistemas é o emprego da circulação natural como sistema de segurança aplicável em operações de desligamento do reator para manutenção ou na ocorrência de acidentes. A circulação natural é um fenômeno que surge em virtude do gradiente de temperatura em pontos diferentes do circuito de refrigeração. Em condições extremas de estabilidade têm-se o estabelecimento do escoamento bifásico gás/líquido podendo configurar-se segundo diferentes regimes. A fração de vazio é reconhecida como um dos parâmetros chave na predição da ocorrência de instabilidades do escoamento bifásico. Apresenta-se neste trabalho uma inovadora metodologia para estimativa da fração de vazio a partir de imagens digitais capturadas diretamente de circuitos experimentais que geram o escoamento bifásico. O método é baseado na aquisição de imagens, com controle da profundidade de campo, de uma seção do Circuito de Circulação Natural (CCN) presente no IPEN/CNEN-SP. A imagem é segmentada com base na inferência fuzzy de diferentes parâmetros de segmentação e ajustada ao foco utilizado na sua aquisição. Ela é varrida de um modo inédito e iterativo, utilizando máscaras de diferentes tamanhos integrando um conjunto de redes neurais com a Transformada Randomizada de Hough. Cada diferente tamanho de máscara é escolhido de acordo com os tamanhos das bolhas que são os objetos de interesse. O volume da bolha é estimado baseado em sua projeção plana capturada nas imagens digitais. O cálculo da fração de vazio considera o volume da seção geométrica do escoamento no tubo de vidro cilíndrico e a profundidade de campo utilizada e nos parâmetros geométricos inferidos para cada bolha detectada. Os resultados mostraram que a integração entre o conjunto de redes neurais e a Transformada Randomizada de Hough aumentaram a robustez das estimativas do sistema. / The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has been encouraging the use of passive cooling systems in new designs of nuclear power plants. Next nuclear reactor generations are intended to possess simpler and robust safety functions. Natural circulation based systems hold an undoubtedly prominent position among these. Natural circulation phenomenon occurrence depends only on the existence of refrigerant liquid temperature gradient in different sections of the plant refrigerator circuit. The study of limit conditions for these systems has led to instability behavior analysis where many different two-phase flow patterns are present. Void fraction is a key parameter in thermal transfer analysis of theses flow instability conditions. This works presents a new method to estimate void fraction from digital images captured at an experimental two-phase flow circuit. The method is primarily based on depth-of-field controlled image acquisition of a section of a closed loop of natural circulating water through cylindrical glass tubes. This loop is called Natural Circulation Facility (NCF) and is located at Nuclear and Engineering Research Institute in Brazil (IPEN/CNEN-SP). Image is segmented based on fuzzy inference of different segmentation parameters and adjusted to image acquisition focus. The image is then scanned in an inedited way using different-sized masks integrating a set of different artificial neural networks with a modified Randomized Hough Transform. Each different mask size is chosen in accordance to bubble sizes which are objects of interest. The bubble volume is estimated based on two-dimensional projection sizing based on digitally acquired images. Void fraction calculation takes into account the volume of the geometrical section of flow inside cylindrical glass tube considering used depth-of-field. It is also based on the summed bubble geometrical parameters inferred for each detected bubble. The results have shown that integration between artificial-neural-net sets and Randomized Hough Transforms increase system estimations robustness.

會計學教課書都教學生：決策之作成，應從成本效益出發，至於過去已投入的成本屬沉沒成本，非攸關，不應影響決策，讀者少有質疑，但事實究竟如何？實務上，決策者做決策時，考量之因素甚多，不會只有成本一項，不過教課書多只著重成本一項，這又與事實相左。本研究以「核四決策」為例，探討實務上決策之作成，在諸多因素中沉沒成本是否真的沒攸關性。 核四應否停建，不論在能源、社會政策等層面皆具高度爭議性。本研究結合會計領域與重大公共政策議題，藉支持/反對停建核四之觀點，辨認決策者或旁觀者所在乎之因素，如已投入興建成本、完工程度、預期尚需投入成本、經濟結果，以及核能安全、核電廠可能面臨的風險等，再探討決策者對停建核四的態度是否受沉沒成本或其他因素之影響；以及，決策者的知識背景（會計系、政治系）及政治理念是否影響決策者的上述認知。 本研究透過問卷搜集資料，發現已投入之核四興建成本（即沉沒成本）顯著影響受測者贊成停建與否的態度：當受測者越覺得沉沒成本重要，越傾向反對停建核四，有沉沒成本效果存在。本研究也發現受測者最重視的細項決策因素，為「臺灣若發生類似福島核災之核災損失」。對臺灣而言，日本福島本具時間、地理、文化上的相近性，再加上媒體敘事的渲染力，福島核災創造人民對於核災的公共想像及恐懼。在其他因素中，「非核家園」之理念亦顯著影響核四決策：當受測者越覺得「非核家園」之理念重要，越傾向贊成停建核四。本研究還發現受測者的知識背景影響其對沉沒成本的態度：評估核四決策時，政治系受測者較會計系受測者，易受沉沒成本影響，將沉沒成本視為攸關。再者，政治理念對於受測者贊成停建與否的影響，當受測者對候選人的偏好為江宜樺先生等人，其立場以反對核四停建居多；當受測者對候選人的偏好為蔡英文女士等人，其立場以贊成核四停建居多。 本研究發現臺電的溝通效果不佳，除數據之可靠性待加強外，傳遞的資訊並未針對問題的核心，例如核能安全很受受測者重視，然而臺電於說明核電廠之安全時，使用「複合式災害」來描述福島核災，複合來自地震及海嘯，而事實上福島核災係因海嘯而造成，海嘯因地震而引發；臺灣外海斷層之地理構造使臺灣核電廠區域縱有大地震時，也不會遭遇如福島般的大海嘯。 因此本研究建議臺電和行政機關，應針對核能安全及核能政策，辨認人民容易產生誤解的資訊為何，以正確的用詞精確澄清。此外，非會計背景之決策者，應加強關於沉沒成本的認知；會計背景之決策者，應抱持批判性思考的態度，質疑「沉沒成本不應該影響決策」的理論是否事實上成立。 / There is an undoubted rule always on accounting textbooks, which is, decision making should base on the cost-benefit analysis, as for the investment in the past belongs to sunk cost and is irrelevant to the decision making. However, is this legit? There are so many concerns beyond the cost when decision maker making decision, but most textbooks only focus on the cost, which is different from the turth. This research takes “the decision making in Lungmen nuclear power plant” as a case study, to examine whether sunk cost is truly irrelevant to decision making in reality. The issue that whether construction of Lungmen nuclear power plant should be suspended is highly controversial, no matter in aspect of energy, social policy and so on. First, across accounting and public issues, the researcher collects the viewpoints from pros and cons toward this issue, and identifies decision factors, for examples, the invested construction cost (which means sunk cost here), the degree of project completion, future expected cost, economic results, and nuclear safety, probable risk of nuclear power plant. Second, this research examines whether sunk cost or other factors influence decision makers’ attitude toward the issue. Third, whether knowledge backgrounds (major in accounting or political science) and political ideologies of decision makers influence their cognitions about sunk cost and the issue. By questionnaire survey, the results of this research found: First, sunk cost does influence receivers’ attitude toward the issue: the more important receivers think sunk cost is, the more they against the construction to be suspended; sunk cost effect has been observed. Second, among factors, receivers take Japan’s Fukushima nuclear disaster most serious. We argue that Fukushima nuclear disaster’s timing, geography and Japan’s culture are close to Taiwan, thus the disaster deepen public imagination and fear about the nuclear disaster. Third, the idea of nuclear-free homeland also influences decision making in the issue: the more important receivers think the idea is, the more they support the construction to be suspended. Forth, receivers’ knowledge backgrounds influence their cognitions about sunk cost: compared with receivers major in accounting, receivers major in political science take sunk cost as a relevant factor. Fifth, political ideologies of receivers influence their attitude toward the issue: when receivers vote to Jiang Yi-Huah etc., most of them against the construction to be suspended; when receivers vote to Tsai Ing-Wen etc., most of them support the construction to be suspended. Sixth, Taiwan Power Company doesn’t have effective communication with the public. Not only reliability of its data, but the covey of core information should be improved. For example, it describes Fukushima nuclear disaster as a “compound disaster” including earthquake and tsunami, but actually the disaster happened only due to tsunami caused by earthquake. The geological formation of offshore faults of Taiwan is different to Japan, thus there will be no Fukushima-like tsunami in Taiwan. This research suggest: First, Taiwan Power Company and executive administration should identify the information that public easily misunderstood, especially about nuclear safety and energy policy, and then clarify with proper words. Second, decision makers with non-accounting background should improve their knowledge about sunk cost. Third, decision makers with accounting background should have critical thinking about whether the theory that “sunk cost is irrelevant to decision-making” is found in reality.

With the ever advancing state of computer systems, it is imperative to maintain the most up-to-date and reliable safety evaluation data for nuclear power systems. Commonplace now is the practice of updating old accident simulation results with more advanced models and codes using today's faster computer systems. Though it may be quite an undertaking, the benefits of using a more advanced model and code can be significant especially if the result of the new analysis provides increased safety margin for any plant component or system. A series of parametric and sensitivity studies for the Loss of Normal Feedwater Anticipated Transient without Scram (LONF ATWS) for Southern Company's Vogtle Electric Generating Plant (VEGP) Units 1&2 located near Waynesboro, GA was performed using the best-estimate thermal-hydraulics transient analysis code RETRAN-02w. This thesis includes comparison to the results of a generic plant study published by Westinghouse Electric Corporation in 1974 using an earlier code, LOFTRAN, as well as Vogtle-specific analysis. The comparative analysis exposes and seeks to explain differences between the two codes whereas the Vogtle analysis utilizes data from the Vogtle FSAR to generate plant-specific data. The purpose of this study is to validate and update the previous analysis and gather more information about the plant actions taken in response to a LONF ATWS. As a result, now there is a new and updated evaluation of the LONF ATWS for both a generic 4-loop Westinghouse plant and VEGP using a more advanced code. Beyond the reference case analysis, a series of sensitivity and parametric studies have been performed to show how well each type of plant is designed for handling an ATWS situation. These studies cover a wide range of operating conditions to demonstrate the dependability of the model. It was found that both the generic 4-loop Westinghouse PWR system and VEGP can successfully mitigate a LONF ATWS throughout the core's operating cycle.

A comunidade da Vila do Frade encontra-se localizada a 5 km de distância em linha reta do reator da central Nuclear almirante Álvaro Alberto, angra dos Reis, RJ. Possui uma população heterogênea, miscigenada por intensos processos de migração ocorridos a partir da década de 1960 em busca das oportunidades de emprego oferecidos pela industrialização local. Ao longo do tempo, parte dessa população assumiu o risco de morar próximo a um reator nuclear, e por isso, migrou em direção as ofertas de emprego oferecidas pelas atividades da central nuclear. Porém, outra parte da população, já residente na região antes da instalação dos reatores nucleares, foi obrigada a conviver com os riscos ou a migrar. À medida que as transformações territoriais avançaram pelas diferentes áreas do município passaram a expor a sociedade local a riscos nunca antes experimentados. Entendido como um processo ou o produto da frequência de ocorrência de um evento no tempo, o risco pode ser assumido, gerenciado ou negligenciado. Dessa forma, a presente pesquisa buscou, através de um estudo empírico, compreender como os diferentes agentes sociais locais convivem com os riscos da atividade nuclear. Foi objetivo da pesquisa a análise da concepção do conceito e da condição de risco por parte dos diferentes agentes sociais constituintes da comunidade da Vila do Frade, Angra dos Reis. Além disso, foi discutido o papel do Estado no processo do ordenamento territorial local. Para tal, uma metodologia baseada no estudo da percepção ambiental dos diferentes agentes sociais locais foi elaborada. As atividades foram precedidas de um levantamento bibliográfico capaz de dar suporte as investigações, além disso, foram realizadas entrevistas quantitativas e qualitativas com as diferentes representações sociais local. As entrevistas quantitativas foram organizadas num banco de dados e utilizadas para compor uma caracterização da população local no que se refere aos conhecimentos necessários para a aplicação do plano de emergência externo da central nuclear. As entrevistas qualitativas foram organizadas num questionário semiestruturado, composto por perguntas abertas e fechadas, e tiveram como objetivo geral uma compreensão da influência da central nuclear nos processos de desenvolvimento humano local. Para a maioria dos entrevistados a falta de um instrumental metodológico capaz de abranger com maior eficiência todas as áreas, classes sociais da comunidade da Vila do Frade e levar com clareza as questões que se colocam dentro do plano de emergência externo são apontados como o principal fator de risco existente na região. / The community of Vila do Frade is located 5 km away, on a straight line, from the reactor of the nuclear power plant Almirante Álvaro Alberto, Angra dos Reis, RJ . It has a heterogeneous population, mixed-race from intense migration processes, which started occurring inthe 1960s, in search of employment opportunities offered by the local industrialization. Over time, part of this population took the risk of living near a nuclear reactor, and, therefore, migrated towards the jobs offered by the activities of nuclear power plant. However, another part of the population, resident in the region before the installation of nuclear reactors, was forced to live with the risk or to migrate. As the territorial transformations advanced through different areas of the city, the local community started being exposed to risks they had never experienced before. Understood as a process or the product of the frequency of occurrence of an event in time, the risk can be assumed, managed or neglected. Thus, this research sought, through an empirical study, to understand how the different local social agents live with the risks of nuclear activity. Objective of the research was the analysis of the concept design and the condition of risk by social workers of the different constituents of the Vila do Frade, Angra dos Reis community. Moreover, discussed the role of the state in local land use planning process. To this end, a methodology based on the study of the environmental perception of different local social agents was prepared. The activities were preceded by a bibliographical survey capable of supporting investigations; moreover, quantitative and qualitative interviews with different social local representations were made. The quantitative interviews were organized in a database and used to compose a characterization of the local population with regard to the knowledge needed to implement the external emergency plan for nuclear power plant. The qualitative interviews were arranged in a semi-structured questionnaire consisting of open and closed questions, and with the overarching goal of an understanding of the influence of nuclear power plant in the processes of local human development. For most respondents, the lack of a methodological tool able to cover more efficiently all areas and social classes of the community Vila do Frade and to clearly lead the issues that arise within the external emergency plan are pointed out as the main factor of risk that exists in the region.

Active Particles at the Temelin NPP, Radiobiological Risks and Protective Precautions The term active particle (AC) was applied on Temelín NPP (ETE) in order to denominate small fragments of high radioactive matters, sized up to 1 millimeter, forming into primary circuit. In accordance with latest available know-how, the ACs major contains corrosion products, that were activated during passing through reactor core. After primary circuit opening, due to carry out outage works, the ACs will spread into ETE radiation controlled area. In proportion to their size, the ACs activity is relative high, so that the ACs can jeopard workers, who will contact them. This jeopardy is namely associated with AC penetration into organism - ingestion or inhalation. The main goal of this dissertation is to determine grounds of ACs occurence in Temelín NPP, to review ACs radiobiological risks and to evaluate procedures and protective aids, used for assurance of workers radiation protection. This dissertation is resuming actual know-how about ACs occured and occuring in Temelín NPP, including suggestions for radiation protection procedures and for protective aids utilization, that are to be used for reduction of above mentioned jeopardy. Next areas are concerned: - analysis of ACs forming and matters composition - description of ACs physical-radiation parameters - identification of main ACs sources in primary circuit - assesment and evaluation of radiobiological jeopardies, associated with ACs occurence in Temelín NPP radiation controlled area - assesment of procedures and protective aids used for protection of workers, who can be endangered by ACs

No entanto, encontra-se consolidado na literatura que os distúrbios do sono podem prejudicar a atenção e o desempenho dos trabalhadores que são submetidos a diferentes horários de sono. Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever as queixas subjetivas sobre o sono e os parâmetros polissonográficos dos trabalhadores em turnos das usinas nucleares brasileiras. Método: Foi realizada uma avaliação subjetiva com a aplicação do Questionário UNIFESP do sono, no qual os trabalhadores que relataram alguma queixa referente ao sono, foram encaminhados para a realização de uma avaliação polissonográfica noturna. Resultados: Dos 327 trabalhadores que responderam ao questionário, 113 relataram queixas de sono; sendo estes também mais velhos, com um maior IMC e que trabalhavam por turnos há mais tempo, quando comparados aos sem queixas de sono. Dentre os 113 que apresentaram queixas e que foram encaminhados para a polissonografia, 90 apresentaram alterações no sono, apresentando como resultado uma maior proporção no estágio 1, um maior índice de microdespertares, um maior índice de apnéia e de hipopnéia e um maior índice de movimento das pernas, quando comparados com os demais. Destes, 18 (20%) apresentaram movimentos periódicos de pernas, 30 (33%) foram considerados como tendo apnéia, e 42 (47%) apresentaram estas duas condições combinadas. A maioria dos casos foi considerada como de grau leve. Conclusões: De maneira geral, os dados do presente estudo corroboram com os já evidenciados na literatura os quais mostram que, subjetivamente (no questionário), os trabalhadores em turnos apresentam queixas de sono. E com a polissonografia xi ii foi constatado que além de queixas a grande maioria dos trabalhadores apresenta índices preditores de distúrbios do sono. As porcentagens encontradas são próximas às da população em geral, mas é importante ressaltar que estas queixas influenciam diretamente para uma diminuição da qualidade de vida destes trabalhadores bem como, no que diz respeito ao desempenho e o aumento do risco de acidentes durante a jornada de trabalho. / It is widely recognized in the literature that shift workers present more health complaints than the general population. The objective of this study was to describe and diagnose the sleep complaints and sleep disorders of shift workers in two Brazilian Nuclear Power Plants. Three hundred and twenty seven (327) shift workers participated in the study. They worked in three rotating shifts: afternoon (3pm-11pm), morning (7am-3pm) and night (11pm-7am). We carried out a subjective evaluation with a sleep questionnaire. Based on these results, the interviewees that reported sleep-related complaints more than three times a week were referred for a Polysomnographic Evaluation. Out of the 327 volunteers initially evaluated, 145 were referred to Polysomnography. Of these, 111 (34%) workers presented some kind of sleep disorder, these being: 31 (21%) with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and 30 (21%) with Periodic Limb Movement (PLM). Fifty subjects (34%) presented both disorders and 34 (23%) presented none. The present study shows that 37% of the population evaluated presented some sort of sleep disorder. This high percentage should be investigated for associations with other aspects of work, such as working hours, working schedule, years performing shift work and access to health services. Due to the strong association between sleep disorders and the incidence of fatigue and sleepiness (and, therefore, a higher probability of accidents), the evaluation of the sleep patterns and complaints of shift workers is essential and should be considered to be one of the basic strategies of the companies to prevent accidents. / FAPESP: 05/57.525-1 / CEPID: 98/14303-3 / TEDE / BV UNIFESP: Teses e dissertações

The thesis deals with the solution to evacuation of the population from the zone of emergency planning of the nuclear power station Temelín in the event of an incident connected with the release of radioactive substances . It analyzes the way of evacuation of the persons, as one of the most important safety measures to ensure protection of the population. In particular, the work focuses on the correct procedures in the case of realization of the evacuation and competence of the persons involved in safety measures. It lists the basic criteria which are applied in protection of the population from the effects of ionizing radiation in vicinity of nuclear power plants. It proposes improving of quality of security protection and information of persons in the zone of emergency planning. The work is based on valid law regulations and special publications of the examined problems. The predominantly part is based on the laws in force, and expertise of publications covering the evacuation of the area.It refers to the external emergency plan, as the basic document for the planning of measures for the disposal of the consequences of radiation accidents or radiation accidents and the limitation of their consequences for the zone of emergency planning. The theoretical part proceeeds from analysis of contemporary legislation concerning the stated problematics, presents the general characteristics of a nuclear device and zone of emergency planning, defining the basic concepts and discusses the important measures in addressing emergencies arising in connection with radiation accidents in nuclear power plant. The work puts emphasis on the principle of correct behaviour of the population in the event of such an accident. For the processing of the thesis there has been used an exploration method, which is based on the proposed methodology. On the base of analysis of survey, possible ways of improvement of this branch were suggested. From the collected data there have been assessed possible system measures of evacuation with regard to their application in practice.

This thesis deals with the influence of the discharges of the Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant ("Dukovany NPP") and the assessment of impacts on the population and the vicinity of the power plant. The thesis summarizes the issues of tritium 3H discharges into waterways and partially deals with the 14C discharges. Attention is paid especially to the radioisotope of hydrogen 3H, due to its chemical and physical form and its presence in the cooling medium (light water) used by that type of nuclear power reactor. The thesis also contains a description of the current state of the Dukovany NPP, especially the existing discharges of the radioactive substances to the surroundings of the nuclear power plant, both to the air and into the waterway. Also was discussed the issue of the new planned blocks of the Dukovany NPP and impacts of the projected discharges on the population during the simultaneous operation of the existing blocks and the planned blocks, again in relation to the 3H discharged into the waterway. The application ESTE AI was used for the determination of individual groups of inhabitants who are most exposed to the radioactive discharges (also called representative person). Based on the current discharges of the Dukovany NPP and the planned blocks discharges were determined the annual effective doses for a representative person. The doses were compared with the legislation on the conditions for the peaceful use of nuclear energy requirements and then with the water management legislation. In order to avoid exceeding these limits were set up recommendations how to dispose of radioactive substances optimally. The thesis answer to the research question: What impacts on the population will have discharges of the Dukovany NPP after the construction of a new nuclear source, especially in relation to the discharges of the 3H into the waterway and which measures will must be applied on the optimization of the inhabitants doses.
