To obtain more accurate results of probabilistic safety assessment (PSA), it is necessary to reflect more complete dynamics of nuclear power plants. In analyzing these more realistic PSA models, numerous thermal-hydraulic code runs should be performed that typically take from a few minutes to several hours. This paper proposes a fast running model using deep learning techniques to obtain plausible accident scenarios while reducing the resources required to conduct PSA. The developed model is built from a conditional autoencoder, and an analysis of its performance is carried out under both trained and untrained ranges. Taking about one second per scenario, the developed model shows about 0.4% and 1.6% error in the trained and untrained ranges, respectively. As a feasibility study, the aggressive cooldown operation under a small break loss-of-coolant accident in the APR1400 plant was considered. The proposed method can reduce uncertainty in PSA and contribute a key technique to dynamic PSA.
