Models of fires with approach of safety in nuclear power plants

Nowadays, with the development and modernizing of societies, their need to new source of energies has been increased. The nuclear industry is one of the risky industries. Experiences of the utilization of nuclear power plants have shown that fire in nuclear plants can cause plants to get out of safety mode. For this purpose, one the methods used before the disaster is applying the fire models for the plants.
This study is a review of the fire models according to fire-fighting in nuclear plants which is gathered based on researches of nuclear power organization, Fire organization and the experience of their experts.
Findings: Recognizing fire scenarios and modeling related to it for fire fighters, using a water supply network of fires, measuresin nuclear disasters and protection measures of fire fighters against radioactive material are very important subjects. In this study fire model and their obtained results was taken into consideration in the basic agenda for the country fire fighters, especially Tehran and most technical elements of fire modeling were examined such as selection and definition of fire scenarios and determining and implementation of input values, analyzing sensitivity, quantification, uncertainty.
Due to the needs of the internal situation in our country plants, every kind of fire-models can be used; Also training of firefighters and becoming familiar with radioactive and nuclear risks and the way how to encounter it was placed on the agenda.
