The robustness analysis of nuclear Reactor Control system
2012 24th Chinese Control and Decision Conference (CCDC), 2012Co-Authors: Wang YuanlongAbstract:Here, the robustness of the nuclear Reactor Control system is discussed by its computer simulation results which are obtained respectively from the analysis without the external Control system and the analysis with the external Control system. After this, the simulation tests both with the classical PID Control and with the advanced PID Control are also given. And then, the comparative analysis on the robustness of the Reactor Control system is shown. Finally, the useful approach improving the robustness of the nuclear Reactor Control system is provided, too.

Testing of SP‐100 Reactor Control approaches in the NAT
AIP Conference Proceedings, 1991Co-Authors: Sang K. Rhow, Raymond A. Meyer, Kwok K. Wong, Frank J. HalfenAbstract:The Generic Flight System (GFS) Reactor Control approach will be tested at the SP‐100 Ground Engineering System (GES) test site as part of the Nuclear Assembly Test (NAT) program. A Control scheme for the NAT has been developed to emulate the GFS conditions for testing of the GFS Reactor Control approach in the NAT. Comparisons between the GFS simulation results and the NAT simulation results show that a reasonably good emulation of the GFS conditions can be achieved in the NAT using the Control scheme described in this paper.

Neutron Sensors in the SP-100 Reactor Control System
Proceedings of the 25th Intersociety Energy Conversion Engineering Conference, 1Co-Authors: Frank J. Halfen, S.k. Rhow, J.e. Savanyo, J.h. ShelamerAbstract:The reference Reactor Control approach for the mature Generic Night System (GFS) utilizes highly reliable and diverse Reactor outlet temperature measurements for Control and protection. Although system dynamic analyses demonstrated that this approach is satisfactory for various modes of operation (including transients involving failure or degradation of equipment), the use of a Neutron Monitoring System (NMS) for initial startup and for an early period of power operation has been studied to improve the performance of the Reactor Control design. Control strategies were developed, simulation analyses were produced, and stability margins were examined. In this updated Control approach, the signals from the NMS are used for the initial startup, for restarts, for power range Control, and for protection from overpower transients as long as reliable data is avaliable from the NMS. The results show satisfactory performance for the, updated Controls. If the lifetime of the NMS is shorter than that of the flight system, the Reactor Control will revert to the reference Control approach employing Reactor outlet temperature measurements only.

Topaz-II Reactor Control unit development
Transactions of the American Nuclear Society, 1994Co-Authors: F.j. Wyant, D. Jensen, J. LogothetisAbstract:The development for a new digital Reactor Control unit for the Topaz-II Reactor is described. The unit is expected to provide the means for automated Control during a possible Topaz flight experiment. The breadboard design and development is discussed.

Topaz II Reactor Control Unit Development at Phillips Laboratory
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1994Co-Authors: Francis J. Wyant, Dan Jensen, Ilt James TaylorAbstract:Abstract The overall purpose of the TOPAZ II Controller Development effort is to provide a "proof-of-principle" Reactor Control unit (RCU) that is ready to test on a TOPAZ II space power system at the TSET facility by early 1995r utilizing available on-site resources. This effort is being conducted as part of the TOPAZ International Program at the US Air Force Phillips Laboratory.
