Methods for Locating Pool Liner Leakage at Nuclear Power Plants

| 2026:1156 | Markus Nilsson, Lund university
This report evaluates practical methods for localizing leakage-relevant defects in thin stainless-steel pool liners in nuclear facilities, with particular emphasis on inspection under water.
Pool Liner Leakage at Nuclear Power Plants

A state-of-the-art review is complemented by targeted EMAT shear-horizontal guided-wave experiments, which clarify detection mechanisms and practical limitations. Based on the combined findings, Alternating Current Field Measurement (ACFM) is identified as the most promising near-term technique for locating surface-breaking cracks, with Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) as a complementary method for detailed characterization. The results provide an application-oriented basis for prioritizing inspection techniques and guiding future development toward more reliable leakage localization with reduced downtime.

    Shear Force Capacity of Existig Concrete Slabs, 2025:1102

    Shear force capacity in concrete slabs is crucial for structural integrity, especially in nuclear power plants where safety and reliability are paramount. In several cases low or sometimes insufficient shear force capacities have been observed in structural analyses of existing concrete slabs using modern codes. Understanding shear force capacity and how it has been treated in earlier codes helps ensure durability and safety, preventing structural failures.
