Video Documentary: Elastic Support & Damping Systems in Gösgen Nuclear Power Plant

The Gösgen Nuclear Power Plant in Switzerland provides a good example of long-term use of elastic support and damping systems for various key components in nuclear power generating plants.

During the operation of machines such as turbines, pumps and other rotating equipment, disturbing vibrations can affect other parts in the nuclear power plant. Vibration isolation technologies suppress these disturbing effects and can be installed as elastic support systems. These technologies can also be integrated for special protection of the installed safety systems to protect from external loads such as earthquakes, aircraft impact scenarios or the risk of possible foundation settlements.

 

Together with the team in Gösgen, we took a look at the elastic support systems that have been installed over the past decades and representatives of the operator gave some statements about their corresponding experience.

GERB Elastic Support Systems in Nuclear Power Plants

Small modular reactor developments and the new generation of nuclear power plants require smart solutions in regard to the seismic protection and qualification of corresponding structures and equipment. To combine the different parts of the plant in a close vicinity also seismic and vibration control systems may become necessary. Addressing settlement of nuclear structures, parts of these structures, or even equipment is always a challenge for the civil engineers.

 

GERB provides a solution for all of these topics. Elastic support systems satisfy these tasks depending on site, structure and performance specific requirements. The focus in each of the projects may be different, but always manageable. Together with all partners specific solutions may be discussed and the elastic support systems can be optimized due to a variety of aspects.
