Breve complemento técnico al post dedicado a la energía electronuclear

Quisiera añadir la siguiente información relacionada con el mayor accidente previsible (maximum credible accident [MCA, sus siglas en inglés]) a mi post http://www.google.com/blogsearch?hl=es&q=Energ%C3%ADa+electronuclear+%C2%BFla+nueva+opci%C3%B3n+cara+a+un+cambio+de+modelo+energ%C3%A9tico%3F&lr?

Para mayor información sobre la Escala Internacional de Accidentes Nucleares (International Nuclear Event Scale [INES, en sus siglas en inglés]) véase la web http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escala_Internacional_de_Accidentes_Nucleares

Con respecto a los detalles específicos de dichos accidentes, consúltese la web

que comprende los siguientes escenarios:

"Design Basis Events
"Design Basis Events [DBE] are defined as conditions of normal operation, including anticipated operational occurrences, design basis accidents, external events, and natural phenomena for which the plant must be designed to ensure functions (b)(1)(i) (A) through (C)" of 10CFR50-49.[9] These include (A) maintaining the integrity of the reactor coolant pressure boundary; (B) maintaining the capability to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition; OR (C) maintaining the capability to prevent or mitigate the consequences of accidents that could result in potential offsite exposures.
The normal DBEs evaluated are Station Blackout (where all offsite and onsite AC power is lost for a specified duration) and loss of coolant accident (LOCA)".
