Hello! Please help me find the book "VVER-1200: Evolution of a Classic." It is very important for my research, but I can't seem to find it

It seems that the text is available from Rosatom.

As I recall, the VVER-1200 evolved from the VVER-1000, with the former considered a Gen-3+ and the latter a Gen-3 design.

Just searching on the title, "VVER-1200: Evolution of a Classic", I found the following:

Development of an optimized thermodynamic model for VVER-1200 reactor-based nuclear power plants using genetic algorithm​

Most of the NPPs currently operational are situated in the colder parts of the globe, having average coolant water temperatures in the range of 4–15 °C. The prominent manufacturers of nuclear reactors like the USA, Russia, France, China, the UK, etc. are also from the cold region. Interestingly, a large number of developing countries pursuing nuclear power are situated in the tropical region. The available reservoir water temperature is usually in the range of 28–32 °C for the tropical region, much higher than that of the colder region. This higher coolant temperature has a significant effect on the selection of condenser pressure, and thus, on the overall thermodynamic efficiency of any thermal power plant

The temperature of the heat sink is very important to large NPPs, even those with cooling towers. In Germany, when they had hot weather and temperatures of river water or air increased, some large NPPs had to reduce power as a precaution.
