Simulation and dose analysis of a hypothetical accident in Sanmen nuclear power plant
چکیده انگلیسی


• Atmospheric dispersion following a hypothetical accident in Sanmen NPP is simulated.
• Japan, North Korea and Russia are slightly influenced in this accident.
• In Taiwan and South Korea, population on 100% and 35% of the land should be given information about reducing dose.
• In mainland China, about 284 thousand people are likely to get cancer.

In November 2013, an AP1000 nuclear power plant (NPP) will be put into commercial operation. An atmospheric dispersion of radionuclides during a severe hypothetical accident in Sanmen NPP, Zhejiang province, China, is simulated with a Lagrangian particle dispersion model FLEXPART. The accident assumes that a station blackout (SBO) accident occurred on August 25, 2011, 55% core was damaged and 49 radionuclides were released into the atmosphere. Our simulation indicates that, during this dispersion, the radioactive plume will cover the mainland China, Taiwan, Japan, North Korea, South Korea and Russia. The radiation dose levels in Japan, North Korea and Russia are the lightest, usually less than 1 mSv. The influenced areas in these countries are 9901 km2, 31,736 km2 and 2,97,524 km2, respectively; dose levels in Taiwan and South Korea are moderate, no more than 20 mSv. Information about reducing dose should be given to the public. Total influenced areas in these two countries are 3621 km2 and 42,370 km2, which take up 100% of the land in Taiwan and 35% of the land in South Korea; the worst situation happens in mainland China. The total influenced area is 3 × 106 km2 and 1,40,000 km2 in this area has a dose level higher than 20 mSv. Measurement must be taken to reduce the dose. More than 284 thousand residents will face the risk of developing cancer. Furthermore, 96% of this population is mainly concentrated in Zhejiang province, where Sanmen NPP locates.
