Development of a Bayesian belief network for a boiling water reactor during fault conditions
Abstract
This paper describes briefly the development and verification of a probabilistic system for the rapid diagnosis of plant status and radioactive releases during postulated severe accidents in a Boiling Water Reactor nuclear power plant. The probabilistic approach uses Bayesian belief network methodology, and was developed in the STERPS project in the European Union 5-th Euroatom Framework program.
