RESUMEN
ABSTRACT: In this research, a comprehensive code called KIANA is developed based on the Gaussian plume model to simulate and predict the radiological consequences received through all the possible, reasonable, probable, and standard exposure pathways for NPPs and chemical facilities. To validate the KIANA code, a case study is modeled for Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant Unit One (BNPP-1), and the KIANA code results are compared with the results of the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR-2017) data of BNPP-1. To assess the performance of the KIANA code, the total dose due to the airborne pathway in accident conditions including small break LOCA (SBLOCA), large break LOCA (LBLOCA), and equivalent exposure dose for the thyroid gland of a group of infants and children age 1 to 8 y at BNPP-1, are investigated. The KIANA code results show that the total effective doses do not exceed the regulatory limit of 5 mSv for external and internal exposures and the regulatory limit of 50 mSv for thyroid equivalent dose. The KIANA code results indicate good agreement with the results of FSAR-2017.

In this paper, a novel domestic code called KIANA was developed for the assessment of radiological impacts on the population in normal and accident conditions including design basis accident (DBA) and beyond DBA (BDBA) for the nuclear power plants. The validation process of the KIANA code was performed using the results of the DOZA_M radiological code, whose results are presented in the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) of the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant Unit One (BNPP-1). The calculations of KIANA are performed based on the Gaussian diffusion model. The developed KIANA code has the potential of calculating the concentration and radionuclide doses due to the pathways such as airborne, foodstuff, marine (both one and two boxes models), soils, animals, vegetation (with and without tritium) and other pathways without any restriction. In the current research, the individual dose from a cloud to the member of the public in the region of BNPP-1 in normal condition was calculated. Moreover, the total effective dose to the member of the public from the primary to the secondary leakage inside steam generators, large break loss-of-coolant accident (LBLOCA) and small break loss-of-coolant accident was calculated. Thyroid gland equivalent dose for the infant (1-8 years) in the case of LBLOCA at the BNPP in DBA conditions was also evaluated. Finally, the prevented dose at the initial stage for the whole body of adults after BDBA, prevented dose at the initial stage for the thyroid gland of children after BDBA and the effective dose during the first year after the accident (external body irradiation from presence in the area) in the case of BDBA are assessed. The KIANA simulation results showed a good agreement with the FSAR data of BNPP.
