Abstract

Bruce Power’s Major Component Replacement (MCR) programme focuses on replacing major components in nuclear power plants. The program includes the replacement of steam generators, pressure tubes, calandria tubes, and feeder tubes. Inspection of Calandria Tubesheet Bores (CTSB) is a time-consuming task within the programme. Currently, engineers manually watch inspection videos to detect defects that could cause a leak test failure. The project aims to automate the inspection process and provide engineers with improved videos or images for faster and more reliable decision-making.
