Industrywide Learning Aging Management Program (i-LAMP) for Neutron Absorber Material Monitoring in Spent Fuel Pools

摘要

In this paper, the components of the proposed industrywide learning aging management program are presented. At this preliminary stage, it is proposed to have two bins for sister pool criteria: One of the bins will include SFPs with a coupon monitoring program while the other bin will include SFPs without a coupon monitoring program. Once the data collection and analysis are complete, sister pool criteria will be revised as needed.Based on the initial proposed schedule, it is anticipated by the end of 2019, data collection and analysis will be completed and will be determined if finer binning is needed. Once the data collection and analysis are complete, guidelines for sister pool criteria development will be developed and discussed at NAUGmeetings. Depending on the analysis results, it will be determined if guideline development for water chemistry and coupon analysis is needed. If it is deemed necessary, EPRI will develop the guidelines and communicate to the industry and regulator.
