ABSTRACT
The study examines the factors and risks that affect the operational safety of energy infrastructure. Economic and technical diagnostics were performed, and the causes of equipment (turbine generator) failures were identified in order to develop effective approaches to managing the technical diagnostics of critical energy equipment and ensuring energy efficiency and safety of energy processes. This study presents a methodology for analyzing heat transfer in the stator winding core of turbine generators at South Ukrainian and Khmelnytsky NPPs, which allows us to gain insight into the temperature distribution and suggest ways to optimize thermal processes. The proposed approach facilitates the assessment of the temperature regime, identification of overheating risks and formulation of emergency measures. The results of the analysis of Khmelnytskyi NPP (Unit 2) and South Ukrainian NPP (Unit 1) showed that at Khmelnytskyi NPP the heat transfer parameters are within the permissible values for all rods, and at South Ukrainian NPP, the heat transfer parameter in rods 13 and 23 is 0 W, which requires immediate intervention to ensure the safety of further operation. This approach allows for timely response to power unit failures, ensuring safety and efficient management of power equipment operation and ensuring the continuous stable operation of the energy infrastructure with maximum efficiency. Further research will focus on the development of methods for predicting the stable operation of the power system based on preliminary technical assessments and thermal and mechanical analysis, which will allow for making science-based decisions on the stability of NPP equipment.

W zaprezentowanych wynikach badań przeanalizowano czynniki i zagrożenia wpływające na bezpieczeństwo eksploatacji infrastruktury energetycznej. Przeprowadzono schematy diagnostyki technicznej i ekonomicznej oraz zidentyfikowano przyczyny awarii urządzeń (turbiny generatora) w celu opracowania skutecznych podejść do zarządzania diagnostyką techniczną krytycznych urządzeń energetycznych oaz zapewnienia efektywności energetycznej i bezpieczeństwa procesów energetycznych. W artykule zaprezentowano metodykę analizy wymiany ciepła w rdzeniu uzwojenia stojana turbiny generatorów w elektrowniach jądrowych południowo-ukraińskiej i chmielnickiej, co pozwoliło nam uzyskać wgląd w rozkład temperatur i zaproponowanie sposobów optymalizacji procesów cieplnych. Proponowane podejście ułatwia ocenę reżimu temperaturowego, identyfikację ryzyka przegrzania i przygotowanie środków awaryjnych. Wyniki analizy Chmielnickiej Elektrowni Jądrowej (Blok 2) i Południowo-ukraińskiej Elektrowni Jądrowej (Blok 1) wykazały, że w Chmielnickiej Elektrowni Jądrowej parametry wymiany ciepła mieszczą się w dopuszczalnych granicach dla wszystkich prętów. W Południowo-ukraińskiej Elektrowni Jądrowej parametr wymiany ciepła w prętach 13 i 23 wynosi 0 W, co wymaga natychmiastowej interwencji w celu zapewnienia bezpieczeństwa dalszej eksploatacji. Zaproponowane podejście pozwala na szybką reakcję na awarie bloków energetycznych, zapewniając bezpieczeństwo i efektywne zarządzanie pracą urządzeń energetycznych oraz ciągłą stabilną pracę infrastruktury energetycznej z maksymalną wydajnością. Dalsze badania będą koncentrować się na opracowaniu metod diagnozy pracy systemu elektroenergetycznego w oparciu o wstępne oceny techniczne oraz analizę cieplną i mechaniczną, co pozwoli na podejmowanie opartych na wiedzy decyzji w zakresie stabilizowania pracy urządzeń elektrowni jądrowej.
