| Description: | This invention relates to a method and device for indirect characterization of damage to the spent nuclear fuel pool envelope enables, on the basis of monitoring measurements of coolant leakage from the system, the performance of indirect characterization of damage to the envelope and prediction of the development of an emergency event; thus, a forecast of the development of the coolant level in the spent fuel pool and a forecast of the development of the dose rate in the vicinity of said pool. Additional parameters such as inflow and temperature of fresh coolant, coolant temperature in the pool, dose rate near said pool and some others are also taken into account in the calculation of damage characterization and emergency development forecast including evacuation extreme weather forecast. |
