Abstract

Determining the durability of a reactor vessel requires a hygro-thermo-mechanical analysis of the vessel throughout its service life. Damage, prestress losses, distribution of heat and moisture and some other quantities are needed for a durability assessment. A coupled analysis was performed on a two-level model because of the huge demands on computer hardware. This paper deals with a hygro-thermo-mechanical analysis of a reactor vessel made of prestressed concrete with a steel inner liner. The reactor vessel is located in Temelín, Czech Republic.
