PID Controller Design Based on Radial Basis Function Neural Networks for the Steam Generator Level Control

open access: yesCybernetics and Information Technologies, 2016
Steam generator level control system is a vital control system for the Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR). However, the steam generator level process is a highly nonlinear and non-minimum phase system, the conventional Proportional- Integral-Derivative (PID)

Procedure of Active Residual Heat Removal after Emergency Shutdown of High-Temperature-Gas-Cooled Reactor

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, 2014
After emergency shutdown of high-temperature-gas-cooled reactor, the residual heat of the reactor core should be removed. As the natural circulation process spends too long period of time to be utilized, an active residual heat removal procedure is ...

Steam Generator Secondary pH during a Steam Generator Tube Rupture [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Technology, 1993
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission requires utilizes to determine the response of a pressurized water reactor to a steam generator tube rupture (SGTR) as part of the safety analysis for the plant. The SGTR analysis includes assumptions regarding the partitioning of iodine between liquid and vapor in steam generator secondary.

High‐Temperature Nanoindentation of Metals: Assessing Thermal Drift, Frame Compliance, and Chemical Composition Effects on the Reported Mechanical Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Do not let thermal drift and instrument artifacts deceive high‐temperature nanoindentation results. We compare classical Oliver–Pharr and automatic image recognition analyses across steels and a Ni alloy to quantify these effects. Accounting for artifacts reveals systematic softening with temperature, while Cr and Ni additions boost resistance ...
