Thermal and creep analysis of VVER-1000 reactor pressure vessel at high temperatures caused by fuel melting during severe accident
Gabriel, Dušan ; Gál, P. ; Kotouč, M. ; Dymáček, Petr ; Masák, Jan ; Kopačka, Ján
Thermal and creep analysis of the VVER-1000 reactor pressure vessel (RPV) was performed at high temperatures caused by fuel melting during severe accident. First, the integral code ASTEC was applied simulating severe accident evolution since an initiating event up to a hypothetical radioactive release into the environment. The ASTEC outputs including the remaining RPV wall thickness, the heat flux achieved and the temperature profile in the ablated vessel wall served as boundary conditions for the consequent assessment of RPV integrity carried out with the aid of finite element method (FEM). The FEM analysis was performed including the creep behaviour of RPV material using a complex creep probabilistic exponential model with damage. The objective of the analysis was to computationally assess emergency condition and, on this basis, to propose a general methodology for evaluating the integrity of RPV at high temperatures due to fuel melting during severe accident.

The role of F₄₂₀H₂-dependent reductases in the biosynthesis of microbial bioactive metabolites incorporating a 4-alkyl-˪-proline derivate
Steiningerová, Lucie ; Janata, Jiří (advisor) ; Masák, Jan (referee) ; Obšilová, Veronika (referee)
Antitumor pyrrolobenzodiazepines (PBDs), lincosamide antibiotics, quorum sensing molecule hormaomycin, and antituberculotic griselimycin are structurally and functionally diverse groups of actinobacterial metabolites. The common feature of these compounds is the incorporation of L-tyrosine- or L-leucine-derived 4-alkyl-L-proline derivatives (APDs) in their structures. APD biosynthesis involves a set of up to six homologous proteins. According to their proposed order in the biosynthesis of 4-propyl-L-proline, a model APD of lincosamide lincomycin, the homologous proteins were named Apd1 - Apd6. Here, we report that the last reaction in the biosynthetic pathway of APDs, catalyzed by F420H2-dependent Apd6 reductases, contributes to the structural diversity of APD precursors. Specifically, the heterologous overproduction and in vitro tests of six Apd6 enzymes demonstrated that Apd6 from the biosynthesis of PBDs and hormaomycin can reduce only an endocyclic imine double bond, whereas Apd6 LmbY and partially GriH from the biosyntheses of lincomycin and griselimycin, respectively, also reduce the more inert exocyclic double bond of the same 4-substituted Δ1 -pyrroline-2-carboxylic acid substrate, making LmbY and GriH unusual, if not unique, among reductases. The two successive F420H2-dependent reduction...

Creep behaviour of 316L stainless steel prepared by 3D printing
Dymáček, Petr ; Kloc, Luboš ; Gabriel, Dušan ; Masák, Jan ; Pagáč, M. ; Halama, R.
The 3D printed 316L stainless steel produced by selective laser melting (SLM) was subjected to short term creep testing at 700 °C. Two directions of printing: i) horizontal and ii) vertical, were selected to test the creep performance of the steel. Comparison with the open literature data shows very good short-term creep properties of 3D printed steel that are superior to conventional steel. Both studied directions of printing show similar results so the steel can be considered from creep point of view as isotropic. The solution annealing prior to the creep testing slightly, but not substantially, lowers the creep performance of the steel.

Dynamic and heat transfer analysis of a container with measuring instruments for space probes
Zolotarev, Igor ; Bula, Vítězslav ; Šnábl, Pavel ; Gabriel, Dušan ; Dobiáš, Jiří ; Masák, Jan ; Snížek, Jan ; Souček, Jan
Rocket boosters and spacecraft are subject to intense acoustic environments during launch, which induce high levels of vibration in structural elements and equipment. In addition, elastic structural interactions with propulsion systems and flight control systems can produce low-frequency, high-deflection flight instabilities. Natural vibration of the container with measuring equipment were studied by numerical and experimental methods in the laboratory of Institute termomechanics CAS. Heat transfer analysis inside the container was made by FEM with respect to the conditions during start of the rocket and work in space.\n
