18-21: Visual Inspection by DroneEDF survey the civil engineering of nuclear power plants. In addition to topographic controls, the traditional visual inspection is operated from the ground, at a long distance from the buildings, to characterize civil engineer defects: cracks, corrosions, concrete peeling and help to define the maintenance. To improve the quality of the controls EDF is testing innovative technologies especially with drones. A visual inspection was tried on a cooling

Whether using galvanized steels

a strategic repair program is an economical option to maintain structural integrity and prolong the service life of the structure

This report aims to discuss the effects on air-cooled heat exchangers and the further impact of it on the dimensioning of axial air flow fans for those air-cooled heat exchangers

that stringent field performance testing be maintained to assure guaranteed performance

This is not surprising

Certification capacities by the CTI assure the tower purchaser of full performance without the need for field-testing

A case study will be presented where calcium is the limiting constituent for COC and the technology is shown to significantly reduce water consumption by increasing the COC

Such technology allows for greater plant siting flexibility

including the dual sources of makeup water and blowdown control

thus reducing their overall consumption

It has become more necessary to control molybdate levels to optimize performance versus cost in corrosion inhibition
