Abstract EN
Huge water storage tank on the top of many buildings may affect the safety of the structure caused by fluid-structure interaction (FSI) under the earthquake.
AP1000 passive containment cooling system water storage tank (PCCWST) placed at the top of shield building is a key component to ensure the safety of nuclear facilities.
Under seismic loading, water will impact the wall of PCCWST, which may pose a threat to the integrity of the shield building.
In the present study, an FE model of AP1000 shield building is built for the modal and transient seismic analysis considering the FSI.
Six different water levels in PCCWST were discussed by comparing the modal frequency, seismic acceleration response, and von Mises stress distribution.
The results show the maximum von Mises stress emerges at the joint of shield building roof and water around the air inlet.
However, the maximum von Mises stress is below the yield strength of reinforced concrete.
The results may provide a reference for design of the AP1000 and CAP1400 in the future.
