ANALYSIS OF INFORMATION ON INCIDENTS AT RESEARCH NUCLEAR PLANTS IN RUSSIA

摘要

The paper contains the results of analysis of disruptions at research nuclear plants (RNPs) in Russia in 2002. Data are given on the breakdown of disruptions by enterprises operating RNPs and by categories defined by the Regulation on Procedures for Investigation and Accounting of Disruptions in the Operation of RNPs. The direct and root causes of disruptions which are encountered most often and corrective actions intended to reduce the number of disruptions at RNPs are covered. It is demonstrated that a downward trend can be seen in the number of disruptions in RNP operation.
