Abstract: There are still some problems in the application of original source terms in operating nuclear power plants imported from different countries, including France, USA and Russia, because of their different regulatory requirements and safety considerations. Some unreasonable design of source terms will directly affect the accuracy of emission source terms and rationality of source terms for environmental impact assessment. In order to solve these problems, frameworks for primary circuit source terms and emission source terms are studied, established and described, to which could provide a technical basis for the calculation of source terms in Hualong-1 and CAP1400 reactors.

Key words: nuclear power plant, primary circuit source terms, emission source terms, framework system, fission products
