Summary:

This book, published by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), provides comprehensive guidelines on the design of auxiliary and supporting systems for nuclear power plants. It is part of the IAEA Safety Standards Series, which aims to enhance global nuclear safety by establishing high-level safety principles and practices. The guide is intended for use by regulatory bodies, operators, and engineers involved in the nuclear industry to ensure the safe operation of nuclear facilities. It emphasizes the integration of safety measures with security measures to protect human life, health, and the environment from the risks associated with ionizing radiation. The publication serves as a resource for implementing international safety standards in nuclear power generation and related applications. Generated by AI.
