A Simulation Environment for Nuclear Power Plants
Eighth IEEE International Symposium on Distributed Simulation and Real-Time Applications, 2004The development of simulators for complex systems like nuclear power plants is a hard task where many different factors have to be considered. This paper presents a simulation environment composed by a simulation kernel and supported by a set of tools and simulation models that allow the real-time simulation of the control room of nuclear power plants.

The building of more nuclear power plants is one of the proposed solutions to the increasing production of anthropogenic CO2 and the mitigation of the global warming threat. Had the USA constructed an additional 56 nuclear power plants in the 1990s, the country would have been in compliance with the Kyoto protocol.

Fission power plants take advantage of the dependence of the binding energy per nucleon binding energy per nucleon on the mass of nuclei. The binding energy of uranium is about 7.5 MeV/nucleon, that of the fission products is about 8.5 MeV/nucleon. Since the fission products are more tightly bound, they have a smaller mass per nucleon. The fission of a

Locating Nuclear Power Plants Underground
Environmental Letters, 1975This paper reviews some of the questions that have been asked by experts and others as to why nuclear power plants are not located or placed underground. While the safeguards and present designs make such installations unnecessary, there are some definite advantages that warrant the additional cost involved.

DIGITAL CONTROL IN NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1983Abstract This document presents the latest automatic control structures used in the programmable control systems of 13.00 MW nuclear power plants constructed by Electricite de France. The impact of this technological innovation goes beyond a straightforward design modification; in addition to the new ranee of processes made possible, it permits far ...

Underground Location of Nuclear Power Plants
2006This chapter focuses on underground location of nuclear power plants. Plants can be built at ground level with external surfaces of the vital parts. These vital parts are covered with soil or special material. Plants can also be located in deep excavation. The location of the turbine–generator system at depth is close to the reactor cavern.
