This paper aims to study the dynamic response and damage of airtight protective doors of nuclear power plants subjected to tornado and wind-borne missile impact. Firstly, a safety performance evaluation method is proposed, considering the structural characteristics of the airtight protective door and relying on support rotation and airtightness. Then, the commercial finite element (FE) program LS-DYNA is utilized to perform the numerical simulations of airtight protective doors in nuclear power plants exposed to tornadoes and wind-borne missile impacts. Subsequently, the parameter analysis method is employed to investigate the impact of keel quantity, size and arrangement, door panel thickness, door core material, and boundary conditions on the dynamic response, airtightness, and failure mode of the airtight protective door. The results show that tornado wind pressure has little effect on the resistance of airtight protective doors and that the impact load of wind-borne missiles plays a leading role. The number and thickness of the keel have significant effects on the force transfer mode and failure mode of airtight protective doors. The thickness of the door panel has a great influence on the damage mode and airtightness of airtight protective doors. The door core improves the local resistance of the airtight protective door to a certain extent, and foam aluminum material has a better energy absorption effect. The change in boundary conditions has little influence on the resistance of airtight protective doors.
