Control Technology for a Daily Load-following Operation in a Nuclear Power Plant

In Korea, the technology of a load fo nuclear power plant has been being developed. automatic controller which is able to control temperature and axial power distribution was automatic controller is functionally divided identification algorithm and a model predictive con former transforms the nuclear reactor status into numerically. And the latter uses them and ge manipulated values such as two kinds of control ro this automatic controller, the performance of a operation was evaluated. As a result, the automatic generated model parameters of a nuclear reacto nuclear reactor average temperature and axial pow track the desired targets during a daily load follow Keywords—axial power distribution, model reactor temperature, system identification
