Determination of Missile Impact Force on Turbine Generator of a Nuclear Power Plant

Abstract

It is reported that when turbines over speed then it results in flying objects or missiles which travels at high velocities. These missiles can cause severe damage to equipment and can be a source of danger to public safety. This review work discusses the methodologies used to determine the velocity of missiles produced when there is fracture in turbine generator. Review of the available damage assessment models has been reported and review experimental work done in this area.
