5 Nuclear Power Source: Limited Number of Plants ~ 400 NPPs in the World, only 17 in China Mainland Capacity: MWe
6 Capacity Plan of Nuclear Energy 60 Nuclear Power Capacity till GWe
7 NPPs distribution Hongyanhe Unit under construction Haiyang Tianwan Operating unit Site under planning Qinshan Sanmen Fuqing Ningde Daya Bay/ LingAo Taishan Fangchenggang Yangjang Changjiang
8 Influence of Fukushima Accident Premier Wen Jiabao emphasized the nuclear safety in China after Fukushima Accident on March 16 th : (1) Immediately organized to conduct a comprehensive safety inspection of nuclear facilities in the whole country. (2) Strengthen the safety management of operating nuclear facilities. (3) Comprehensively review NPPs under construction, immediately stop the construction of the ones which do not meet safety standards. (4) Pay close attention to the preparation of nuclear safety planning, and suspend approval of nuclear power projects.
9 Response for the above: No accident of or above INES level-2. Currently operating NPPs: Generally meet the safety standard of China and IAEA. NPPs under construction (e.g. AP1000, EPR): Designed to have higher safety level, and construction quality are well controlled. Problems found: Lack of management standards under possible accidents. More safety measures against natural disasters needed.
10 On Oct 24, 2012, the Central government passed: Plan on nuclear power safety ( ); Plan on nuclear power development ( ); On Jan 1, 2013, the central government issued: Energy Development 12th Five-Year Plan ; China Restarts approval of new nuclear power plants after Fukushima Accident?
11 Goals by 2015 Thus, gradually resume to normal construction under meeting safety requirement; By 2015, 30% of China's power will be generated from solar, wind and other renewable sources, as well as from nuclear energy. By 2015, generating capacity of NPPs in China will reach 40 gigawatts. Present 17 nuclear reactors, providing 14.8 gigawatts another 29 reactors under construction, adding 31.7 gigawatts
12 For future new NPPs NPPs Operation Policy - Only built in coastal areas tentatively. (before 2015) - Have to incorporate third-generation nuclear-safety technology that meets the highest international safety standards. For NPPs already running or approved - Inspection on current safety status billion RMB government project on upgrading current NPPs safety level, mainly based on the lessons learnt from Fukishima.
13 Issued Projects Based on Lessions learnt from Fukushima Accident I. Reactor Performance Estimation and Respond Strategy under Natural Disaster 2. Seismic; 3. Flooding; 4. multiple external disasters Natural Environment 1. prevention & mitigation of severe accidents NPPs II.

31 C( n, p, t) t n', p' J ( n', p') ( n, p) n', p' J ( n, p) ( n', p') Ordinary differential equations Tool of resolution: Mathematica Ensemble of reactions of transition towards (n,p) Ensemble of reactions of transition away from (n,p) Microstructure parameters, such as cluster size, radius, volume fraction and number density, are obtained from the solution.
32 Cluster Dynamics / APT Results cluster size and average precipitate radius Fe-Cu Binary Alloy
33 Cluster Dynamics / APT Results volume fraction and number density Fe-Cu Binary Alloy
34 Cluster Dynamics / APT Results cluster size and average precipitate radius Fe-Cu-Ni Ternary Alloy
35 Cluster Dynamics / APT Results volume fraction and number density Fe-Cu-Ni Ternary Alloy
36 Comparing Fe-Cu & Fe-Cu-Ni alloys Nucleation rate of Fe-0.5Cu alloy and Fe-0.5Cu-0.8Ni alloy Additional Ni accelerates the nucleation of the Cu-enriched precipitates
37 Cluster number density Comparing Fe-Cu, Fe-Cu-Ni, Fe-Cu-Ni-Mn alloys Fe-0.5wt%Cu Fe-0.5wt%Cu- 0.8wt%Ni Fe-0.5wt%Cu- 0.8wt%Ni- 1.4wt%Mn
38 APT/CD suggest: Si, Ni and Mn atoms addition accelerated precipitates nucleation. Mn and Si accelerate the hardening of alloys. Ni addition suppresses hardening. Further Considerations: What happens in the matrix? Ni, Mn and Si at the precipitate-matrix interface What happens at grain boundaries/dislocations Fast diffusion paths & heterogeneous nucleation sites
