Recently, the FNPP (Floating Nuclear Power Plant) has got more and more attention and rapid development due to very wide prospect application on remote areas or islands. In general, the IPWR (Integral Pressurized Water Reactor) is adopted to meet the requirements of the limited space, the nuclear safety and the maneuverability in marine. The IPWR could depend on natural circulation operation to remove the residual heat of core under accident or low load operation condition. Because the driving head is low, the natural circulation flow is likely to be influenced by rolling and inclined condition. To clarify the natural circulation flow characteristics of the core in FNPP rolling motion and inclined condition, based on the modified THEATRe code by adding the ocean motion module and spatial coordinate convert module, the main thermal-hydraulic parameters variation in rolling and inclined condition were obtained. The effect of inclined angle, rolling amplitude and period on the natural circulation flow were discussed. The natural circulation flow in the core fluctuates periodically with rolling motion. And the inclination and rolling will also cause the degree of steam superheat of OTSG secondary side fluctuate, which could impact on the stable operation of secondary side system.

The simulation research on the natural circulation operation characteristic of FNPP in rolling and inclined condition
