Forecasting the Operation of Sealing Joints of Transport Locks of WWER-1000 and WWER-1200 Power Units in Operational Modes

The relevance of this work is determined by the need to predict the operation of sealing joints of transport locks of WWER-1000 and WWER-1200 power units in operational modes. The results of tests of rubber seals for tightness are given. Based on the study, the tightness of the rubber seals used was assessed and recommendations are developed to increase the reliability of the sealing joints of transport locks of WWER-1000 and WWER-1200 power units in operational modes.
