Considerable Experience

Precautions taken to ensure ‘clean’ conditions in the first civil nuclear power stations resulted in excessive costs and delays. These precautions are aimed at the elimination of materials which could poison the core, create a maintenance hazard, affect the fuel elements or increase the fire risk in the core. The present paper reviews the subject in the light of the considerable experience of constructing and running reactors now available, and an attempt is made to assess the importance of the various precautions.

High Head

An unparalleled increase in the output of power-generating units in the last decade has made it necessary to reconsider the established boiler feed pump design philosophy. This paper deals with a number of design aspects which are of vital importance for the future development of a modern high head per stage boiler feed pump. The paper discusses the pressure and depression pulses that are generated when impeller vanes travel past the stationary vanes of guide equipment. It is considered that these pressure fluctuations can cause cavitational damage in the impeller and other parts, and also the uneven running of a pump. The influence of geometrical and hydraulic non-symmetry on radial forces in a double volute casing is dealt with. Test results of a double suction model boiler feed pump are presented, including descriptions of durability runs with paint-coated hydraulic surfaces.

Abstract This case comment explores the relationship between two intertwined objectives – ensuring security of electricity supply and environmental protection – in the context of the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union in Inter-Environnement Wallonie ASBL and Bond Beter Leefmilieu Vlaanderen ASBL v. Conseil des ministres. The analysis focuses on the application of the Environmental Impact Assessment Directive and the Habitats Directive to the facts of the case, which concerns the extension by a ten-year period of the operation of two Belgian nuclear power stations (Doel 1 and Doel 2) as part of a national energy policy strategy to ensure the security of Belgium's electricity supply. The case comment also considers the legal and practical implications that arise as a result of employing the ‘security of electricity supply’ exemption to enable derogation from the requirements of the aforementioned Directives in circumstances where a Member State considers the security of its electricity supply to be under threat.
