11.5 Conclusions
Safeguard.operations.are.successfully.modeled.using.the.dynamic.method,.
based.on.nanoscale.nuclear.fuel.material..Each.event.is.quantiied.as.random.
number.generations,.because.it.is.impossible.to.predict.the.exact.time.of.the.
terror.event..Network.effect.is.used.to.model.power.uprate.safeguards,.where.
the.zero-sum.effect.is.used.for.several.event.quantiications..The.life.of.an.
NPP.is.assumed.to.be.10.years,.so.the.period.is.120.months..The.main.issue.
in. the. model. is. simulation. of. the. neutronics. matters. and. thermohydraulic.
matters.. Safeguard. matters. are. also. investigated.. The. plausible. values. are.
deined.for.the.numerical.values.of.basic.events..Using.the.simulation,.here.
are.some.conclusions:
