ABSTRACT
Formed complex technical and economic models for quantitative description (VEA) of integrated indicators and local operating characteristics of a distributed system of production units (nodes) object lifecycle closed nuclear fuel cycle (CNFC). The proposed model takes into account all the major blocks of two conjugate process stages of nuclear reactors “thermal- fast” neutrons. For each stage of a typical nuclear power accounted for interacting structure of process nodes (units): 1) the production of fuels (fuel rods), 2) reactor zone, including how converters nuclear energy into electricity, and 3) regeneration of spent nuclear fuel materials, 4) treatment radioactive waste management, 5) decommissioning. relevant complicated subsystems represented closed multilevel (hierarchical) information-analytical model with multiple feedback loops that account (status characteristics) production units. Given components: capital investment costs, taxes, and maintenance costs, depreciation, discounting the fuel-costs-parties costs of energy production facilities. The proposed analytical system provides optimization design performance management subsystems, particularly in aspects of factors influence the market environment, limited financial resources, etc.
One of the primary applications performance management process is CNFC offers for substantiation of the design decisions in relation created where FSUE-«Zheleznogorsk» (Krasnoyarsk)- Experimental Demonstration Center (ODC), the main requirement to which is to develop the complex physical and chemical processes of regeneration of fissile material for spent nuclear fuel. In this fractionation processes radionuclides spent fuel must address the following list of applications:
- Allocation of fissile nuclides for use in nuclear power.;
- testing of new technologies and equipment, reducing processing costs;
- Issuance of initial data for design and construction. large-scale plant for the
reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel.
Another subtask report – justification expert methods practical justification (use) in the
international markets (ICFS) fuel services production of nuclear energy (energy production, storage volumes and fuels) as analytical framework SWOT-analysis technology competitiveness CNFC as complex properties "opportunities-threats -prospects. Proposed analytical subsystems are also interesting as a tool of learning in relation to the characteristic properties of innovative scenarios of nuclear energy.
