A movie that understands the relationship between Toshiba and America with the latest type nuclear power plant "AP1000"

Toward the construction of a nuclear power plant in the United States for the first time in 34 years, the Westinghouse Company received an order from the Georgia Electric Power Company, a subsidiary of Southern Electric U.S. of the United States, condensate used in the latest pressurized water nuclear reactor AP1000 for the Bogur Nuclear Power Plant Toshiba announced that it had shipped its first shipment.

Toshiba: News Releases (2011-12-01): On the shipment of condensers for nuclear power plants for the US
http://www.toshiba.co.jp/about/press/2011_12/pr_j0101.htm

It is the first time that Toshiba will ship heavy equipment for new nuclear power plants in the US, and it will be the first shipment for AP 1000 equipment.


The condenser for nuclear power plants shipped by Toshiba this time is a device that reuses the steam after turning the turbine / generator back to water and is used for the Unit 3 of the Bagle Nuclear Power Station in the USA . Toshiba is in charge of design, technical support and quality control, and Korea BHI is in charge of manufacturing. Toshiba also began manufacturing the turbines and generators for Units 3 and 4 at the Keihin office, and it is said that it will be shipping in the future.


This latest nuclear power plant "AP 1000What is, what is said to be the state-of-the-art nuclear power plant with electric output of 1.15 MW, "Safety system does not require operator's operation or power supply, world's first design" "Compressed gas pressure Cooling water is injected into the reactor vessel by force such as gravity or the like, and heat is removed by natural circulation "and furthermore in terms of cost," equipment, piping and cables are greatly reduced, It was shortened. "

This is explained even in the movie published by Toshiba, the following is the real thing of that movie.

Toshiba Group Westinghouse Company Development latest nuclear power plant AP1000


This is a pressurized water nuclear reactor


Primary system for cooling the reactor core


Secondary system that generates steam and moves the turbine power generation part


A system in which radioactive substances are not primary system but secondary system


A pressurizer that applies pressure so that the cooling water of the primary system does not boil


Steam generator


Structure in which primary cooling water flows through thin tube


And heat is transferred to the secondary cooling water outside the pipe


Water is boiled by this heat and steam is generated


Steam goes out of containment through steam pipe


Steam is sent to the turbine generator, and the turbine rotates. This is also planned to be made by Toshiba in Japan.


This is the generator part, and Toshiba will also make it here in Japan.


A condenser that cools steam and returns it to water, this is the part that Toshiba shipped this time.


The control rod is inserted from the top, and it is inserted arbitrarily by gravity in case of emergency


Features of AP1000


Safety system dealing with emergency


"Static safety" design has been designed, the world's first static safety furnace to inject cooling water into the core with natural forces such as gas pressure and gravity to remove heat by natural circulation


Significant reduction in equipment, piping and cables


According to this, the construction period is short and the operation / maintenance performance is excellent


It is the latest model since it is the third generation + type next to the third generation


In addition, the promotion video of AP 1000 published by YouTube by Toshiba Group's Westinghouse Company is an image precedent type, and from the time when 2 minutes have passed since playback started, in order to improve even a little impression It uses images of various natural environments, images of smart phones used to bring in close contact with their lives, and even cool BGM, which is quite different from other perspectives.

Somehow nature in the background of the smartphone


If you look closely, AP1000 is in the middle of nature and there are majestic mountains in the background


Beautiful green


Water droplets


Twinkle


Blue sky, white clouds, refreshing


Full of water drops

AP 1 000 appeared at a place where I improved the image gradually by inserting an image between


It has become a feeling that, what I mean, I am doing my best to build a safety myth in a different way.

According to Toshiba 's release, "From the viewpoint of energy security and global environment protection, continuous demand is anticipated in each country.The company cooperates with international safety assessment and review of equipment standards etc. We will reflect on our new plant design and existing plant improvements and will make constant efforts to further improve safety.
