Design optimization support tool named ARKADIA-Design for diverse nuclear power plant is being developed in Japan Atomic Energy Agency. To implement the design optimizations in the fields of core, plant structure, and maintenance, development of the numerical analysis methods including a coupled analysis to evaluate the plant performance and installation of the procedure in each optimization process are investigated.
