Decentralized state-space controller design of a large PHWR
Khan, Nafisah (2009-11-01)The behaviour of a large nuclear reactor can be described with sufficient accuracy using a nodal model, like the spatial model of a 540 MWe large Pressurized Heavy Water Reactor (PHWR). This model divides the reactor into ... -
Design of a fault tolerant control scheme based on sliding mode for Canadian supercritical water reactor
He, Huan (2016-08-01)Canadian Super Critical Water Reactor (SCWR) is one of the Generation IV reactor types and possible heat source for co-hydrogen production through copper chlorine thermochemical cycle. To maintain the balance between the ... -
Dynamic safety assessment of FPGA-based safety critical systems with applications in nuclear power generation
McNelles, Phillip (2016-12-01)Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAS) are a type on integrated circuit that is configured by the end user to perform desired digital logic functions. FPGAs do not run any software or operating system, as the logic functions ... -
Petri net modeling of fault analysis for probabilistic risk assessment
Lee, Andrew (2013-04-01)Fault trees and event trees have been widely accepted as the modeling strategy to perform Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA). However, there are several limitations associated with fault tree/event tree modeling. These ...
