Galuszka, Jakub ; Ing. Pavel Štěpánek - ČEZ a.s.- EDU (referee) ; Matoušek, Antonín (advisor)
This dissertation deals with the idea of annexing a new nuclear resource in the locality of the Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant and the way of its connection to the power system. The main aim of this dissertation is to design concrete solution of the connection of the new resource to a certain point of the power system and complete this design by means of chosen calculation. According to the task, this dissertation consists of three parts. The first part describes the current engineering solution of the main one line diagram of our two existing nuclear power plants and generally of chosen types of power plants abroad, too. There is also a design of the internal consumption of the nuclear power plants. The objective of the second part of this dissertation is to present the survey of the power and dispositional variants of the new resource in view and mainly assess general possibilities of its connection. Using all information from the preceding part, the third part presents the concrete design of the engineering solution of the connection of the new resource to the power system and also the calculation of parameters of block transmission line. Another dissertation named “Study of Slavětice Distribution Substation Enlargement for EDU New Resources“ concurs this part or more precisely, my dissertation as a whole . For my dissertation I have used some materials and information from the ČEZ Corporation which are confidential. I have also used some knowledge from the analysis from the EGÚ Brno Corporation. This dissertation neither represents nor substitutes a complex analysis of all aspects of a new nuclear resource in the Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant.

Parking house of NPP Dukovany
Machů, Jana ; Vlachynský, Ladislav (referee) ; Boleslavská, Yvona (advisor) ; Matějka, Libor (advisor)
The theme of this bachelor thesis is the design of the building of the Parking house for the Dukovany nuclear power plant. The basis of this work is based on the subject AG035 – Architectural design studio 5. The area is flat and large enough, so there was a requirement to repeat the building on this land in the second stage of construction. Therefore, two mirror-identical objects (SO01 and SO02) are designed in one area. In this bachelor work is solved object SO01. The land is trapezoidal, half of which now has a parking area. Along the northwest boundary of the plot lies a road to which the plot connects in the northern part. Now the land is located on the northwest side of the nuclear power plant, however, the construction of another part of the power plant is planned and thus the parking house will occur in the middle of these two units. The parking house is designed as a four-storey building with 787 parking spaces. It is a simple mass in the shape of a block, which is accentuated by a protruding cantilevered staircase on each side of the building. The building also visually plays on the facade with its closed and open areas, which are covered by aluminum slats. Structurally the building is designed as reinforced concrete, for the most part prefabricated (columns, girders and ceiling panels) for speed and simplicity of construction, but there is also used monolithic reinforced concrete (walls and ceiling slabs) to reinforce the building. The construction system is bidirectional.

Nuclear Power Plant Dukovany Tasks within an Electricity Grid of the Czech Republic
Prokop, Ondřej ; Řež,, Martina Malá, Centrum výzkumu (referee) ; Katovský, Karel (advisor)
The aim of the Bachelor’s thesis is to describe the role of The Nuclear Power Plant Dukovany (Dukovany NPP) in the Czech electricity grid. Increasing of the production of electricity from renewable energy sources in the electricity grid causes more frequently compliance of N-1 criterion and it decrease the reliability of the electricity grid. The risk of Blackout increases, which would cause large economic losses and danger to the life of human beings. Therefore, reliable, good controllable and safety sources of electricity are very important. The first part of the thesis describes the role of Dukovany NPP in the process of regulation of basic electrical parameters during the normal operation of electricity grid. The second part of the thesis deals with states and the function of Dukovany NPP after full or partial disintegration of the electricity grid. Final part analyzes the importance of Dukovany NPP in Czech electricity grid and future development Dukovany NPP with possibility of the construction of new nuclear units after the end of the operation in 2035. The Dukovany NPP is an important regulator of the reactive power. There isn’t other power plant in the southeastern part of the Czech Republic, which could significantly control reactive power. The power from Dukovany NPP, which is provided on ancillary services controlling the real power and frequency has been increasing in recent years. This is due to the increasing production of renewable sources. Units switch to island operation after partial disintegration of electricity grid. If frequency exceeds the limit, the units will switch to it is own consumption. In this stage of operation at own consumption can Dukovany NPP operated without the time limit. Dukovany NPP may participate in restoring the electricity grid, based on dispatch control instruct. If switching to own consumption is not successful and back up sources and emergency’s dieselgenerator are unavailable, the power supply has to be restored as soon as possible. There are six independent solutions to restore the power supply. Next option of restore power supply will be the AAC network after the completion of construction in 2014. The AAC network will be resistant to the extreme weather and will be place it in the area of the power station, thereby Dukovany NPP will be more independent on external network.
