This document provides an overview of the Narora Atomic Power Station (NAPS) in India. It discusses the key components and systems of NAPS, including the reactor layout, uranium fuel bundles, calandria, heavy water moderator, shutdown systems, cooling water, and feed water systems. NAPS utilizes natural uranium fuel and heavy water moderator to generate electricity through nuclear fission, with the heat used to convert water to steam that drives turbines. The document contains detailed specifications and descriptions of how different parts of the nuclear power plant work together.

Ganga in Bulandshahr district of Uttar pradesh
• Naps is involved in generating electricity by utilizing nuclear
energy
• Naps is a twin unit module which develope totally 440MWe
by using uranium as a fuel and heavy water as a moderator
• Naps is laid down on 4th january 1974

6. WORKING OF NUCLEAR PLANT

7. working of nuclear power plant continued...
Nuclear power plants generated electricity from
nuclear heat
The nuclear heat converts water to steam ,which in
turn drives the turbine and generator to produce
electricity
Inside a nuclear power station,energy is released by
nuclear fission in the core of nuclear reactor
1kg of Uranium U-235 produce as much energy as
the burning of 4500 tonnes of high grade variety of
coal or 2000 tonnes of oil

8. Principal of Nuclear reactor
 A Nuclear Power reactor is only a source of heat
 The heat being produced when the uranium atom splits
(fission)
 Natural uranium consist of two types (isotopes) of uranium
namely U-235 and U-238 in the ratio of 1:139
 Naturally occuring uranium contains ony 0.71% U-235,the
remainder is the non fissible U-238
 When a U-235 atom is struck by a slow (or thermal)
neutron, it splits into two or more fragments

9. Principal continued(fission)...

10. URANIUM FUEL BUNDLE

11. Uranium fuel bundle continued...
Uranium fuel bundles are 49.53 cm long & has
8.17cm dia
Each bundle consists of 19 hermetically seal
zircaloy tubes containing compact & sintered
pallets of natural uranium
Twelve such bundles are located in each fuel
channel.

12. CALANDRIA

13. calandria continued...
Calandria is the heart of reactor and it is the source
of heat
Calandria is a cylindrical vessel having 306 Calandria
tubes
One coolant tube passes through each calandria
tube, and this Coolant tube has 12 fuel Bundles in it
which undergo fission reaction

15. HEAVY WATER
 Heavy water is used as both coolant and moderator
 Heat energy is transported by coolant from reactor
to the vertical, integral U-tubes in shell type of heat
exchangers
 The absorption of heavy water for neutron is far
less than the ordinary water
 This helps in neutron economy

16. Moderator System
 Moderator system is a
heavy water and helium
system
 Calandria is always full of
moderator up to 96% and
remaining volume is
covered by helium gas
 Working pressure and
temperature of
moderator system are
8Kg/cm2 and 63 oC
respectively

17. SHUTDOWN SYSTEM
1. PRIMARY SHUTDOWN SYSTEM
-This system will response in just 2.3 sec
-This is slow down acting system
-primary shutdown system has shutoff mechanism at 14
locations in the reactor
2.SECONDARY SHUTDOWN SYSTEM
-This will used when primary system is fail to shutdown the system
- This is the fast acting system and respond in 1.4sec
-secondary shutdown system is a fast acting back up system to the primary
shutdown system

18. Compressed Air System
The compressed air system has been provided
for the supply of compressed air for the
purpose of
• Instrumentation(Instrument Air)
• Control service(Service Air)
• Mask air requirement(Mass Air)

19. CWPH
 Circulating water system is mainly for removing the latent
heat from the turbine exhaust and maintains the desired
exhaust pressure in condenser.
 Some portion of circulating water is supplied
1. Turbine oil coolers
2. Hydrogen coolers
 plant consists of six horizontal opposed balanced type air
compressors, each having nominal capacity of 14.85M3/min.
(Free air delivery = 18.0M3/min) at a pressure 8.5 Kg/cm2

21. FEED WATER SYSTEM
Feed water system main function:-
1. Supply adequate high quality water to steam
generator.
2.heat the water from about 49℃ to 170℃.
Feed water pump:-
1.Feed water pump is used to increased the
pressure 350 psi to 1200 psi.
2.Each unit typically will have 2 or 3 Feedwater
pumps.

22. Feed Water pump
Feedpumps usually rotate at about 5000 revolutions per
minute and have an oil lubricating system.
