EVACUATION PLANNING AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATE ANALYSES METHODS FOR NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS
Öz
Evacuation with the use of iodine pills is the most preferred protective action before the release of radioactive material for those living in emergency planning zones during general emergency situations that may occur in all nuclear power plants with thermal power higher than 100 MW. In this way, deterministic health effects on people living in the region can be prevented and radiation doses above the international generic criteria for the implementation of protective actions and other response activities can be prevented. In this context, during the preparation of emergency plans for nuclear power plant emergencies, evacuation plans and analysis to determine the evacuation time estimate gain importance.
In this study, the issues that need to be emphasized during the evacuation planning studies are explained and the information about the contents of the presentations of these studies in the emergency plans are given on the basis of scientific articles and regulatory and technical documents of USA. While explaining the issues related to the calculation of the evacuation time estimate, the topics such as the generation of demand estimates, determination of roadway capacity and analysis methods to be used were emphasized. Within the scope of the studies related to evacuation planning and determination of evacuation time estimate, it was concluded that the evacuation delay factors specific to the country or region where the nuclear power plants are located should be taken into consideration in addition to the issues stated in the relevant regulatory and technical documents.
