MODEL-BASED ANALYSIS OF EFFECTIVENESS OF ENGINEERING SOLUTIONS DESIGNED TO INCREASE COOLING CAPACITY OF TASHLYK WATER RESERVOIR OF SOUTHUKRAINIAN NUCLEAR POWER PLANT
SINOPSIS
The three-dimensional numerical hydrothermodynamical model THREETOX was used to calculate the thermal regime of the cooling pond of the South-Ukrainian nuclear power plant under adverse weather conditions. The reliability of simulation results confirmed the coincidence of the calculated values of water temperature in the reservoir and measurements. It is shown that the calculation of the thermal regime of the cooling pond can be performed using both preassigned and forecasted weather conditions. Modeling of the hydrothermodynamics of the cooling pond for different engineering solutions allows one to choose the most effective solutions to increase its cooling capacity.
