Nuclear Power Plant Safety and Mechanical Integrity (eBook, ePUB)

Design and Operability of Mechanical Systems, Equipment and Supporting Structures

Beschreibung

One of the most critical requirements for safe and reliable nuclear power plant operations is the availability of competent maintenance personnel. However, just as the nuclear power industry is experiencing a renaissance, it is also experiencing an exodus of seasoned maintenance professionals due to retirement. The perfect guide for engineers just entering the field or experienced maintenance supervisors who need to keep abreast of the latest industry best practices, Nuclear Power Plant Maintenance: Mechanical Systems, Equipment and Safety covers the most common issues faced in day-to-day operations and provides practical, technically proven solutions. The book also explains how to navigate the various maintenance codes, standards and regulations for the nuclear power industry. - Discusses 50 common issues faced by engineers in the nuclear power plant field - Provides advice for complying with international codes and standards (including ASME) - Describes safety classification for systems and components - Includes case studies to clearly explain the lessons learned over decades in the nuclear power industry
