Abstract: Acceptability criterion hasn't been made in China for assessment of public radiological risk incurred as a consequence of severe accidents. A methodology related to public radiological risk evaluation for NPP is presented in this paper. Besides, based on the site meteorological condition and population distribution, and the related Level 2 PSA reports, an accident consequence code system (MACCS) is used to calculate the exposure dose and risk after severe accidents for Xudapu NPP. Moreover, comparisons have been made with acceptability criterion in the USA and UK, which may serve as support for making acceptability criterion in China.

Key words: nuclear power plant(NPP), emergency, PSA, risk evaluation
