Nuclear Energy Development is gradually gaining root in the energy mix of the Chinese society. It is quite evident to develop all possible emergency evaluation situation in the event of nuclear energy. Nuclear Emergency falls under the relative serious emergency incident grades according to the degree of social harm done and the extent of repercussions and other factorsThis paper illustrates system modelling predictions of the transfer of radiocaesium from soil-to-plant during nuclear emergency. Planned discharges of radionuclides are passed by mathematical models that can be used as tools to evaluate the effective ways of countermeasure actions in an event of an emergency.The empirical approach often associates with considerably uncertainty due to the large variability in the transfer factor The mechanistic approach also presents complexities and a large amount of specific parameters makes this approach impractical for nuclear emergency preparedness and response purposes.The semi-mechanistic approach factorizes more soil and plant parameters than the empirical approach. Therefore, it is applicable to a wider range of environmental conditions. The nuclear emergency adapts the parameterization of the Absalom model which is sufficiently robust and practical, hence fit more for the purpose of planning and responding to nuclear emergencies as compared to the empirical and mechanistic approaches.Keywords; Nuclear emergency, Food chain, soil-to-plant transfer, modeling

2021 28th International Conference on Nuclear Engineering (ICONE28)

Supporting the need among researchers worldwide for additional online and multimedia content, ASME now offers the ASME Conference Video Collection. This platform will collect and provide long-term access to conference presentation videos, encompassing all technology areas within ASME's technical conference and events program. About 30,000-40,000 engineers across all mechanical engineering and related disciplines participate in ASME conferences each year. This includes authors of approximately 6,000 to 8,000 technical papers published by ASME, the majority of whom also submit video presentations for our virtual conferences. The video collection will be available as an add-on to existing product packages or as a separate subscription.
