This study is motivated by a lack of information regarding the seismic analysis and design of AP1000 passive containment cooling system water storage tank (PCCWST). The major challenge faced in this specific type of fluid–structure interaction (FSI) problem is the estimation of the forces associated with the hydrodynamic pressure. In this paper, an equivalent mechanical model for the water tank of...
AP1000 passive containment cooling system water storage tank (PCCWST) is set at the top of a shield building. Its function is to hold the water which will flow by gravity to help cool the containment vessel in the highly unlikely event of an emergency – one of the AP1000 plant’s innovative passive safety systems. The huge amount of water may pose a threat to the integrity of the shield building during...
