A natural circulation type boiling light-water reactor comprises a pressure vessel, a reactor core disposed within said pressure vessel to heat light water so as to generate main steam, a steam outlet provided in a wall of said pressure vessel for drawing out the main steam therethrough to supply the same to a turbine system, and a steam path along which the main steam flows from the reactor core to the steam outlet. The reactor further comprises a steam guide for prolonging the steam path and/or a radially increased chimney for reducing the velocity of the main steam flowing through the steam path. These causes radioactive isotope .sup.16 N contained in the main steam to flow within the pressure vessel for a time period exceeding its own half-life, so that the inventory of .sup.16 N in the main steam directed towards the turbine system is reduced remarkably. In consequence, shield structures for piping and turbine systems can be reduced in size and weight.

A capacitive load driving apparatus which has a plurality of first switching elements connected between a plurality of parallel loads and a first power source terminal for switching currents which charge the loads. There is furthermore provided a plurality of bipolar transistors connected between connecting points (of the first switching elements and the loads) and a second power source terminal for discharging charges stored in the loads and a plurality of second switching elements connected between a third power source terminal and bases of the bipolar transistor, respectively, for switching base currents supplied from the third power source terminal to the bipolar transistors. In addition, the capacitive load driving apparatus has a logic circuit connected to an input terminal for providing driving signals which turn off selectively one or all of the second switching elements in accordance with a signal from the input terminal, and it has a resistor connected between the third power source terminal and the second switching elements.

A pipelined adder for adding or subtracting two floating point input data each expressed by a sign data, an exponent data and a mantissa expressed in a sign-magnitude format, in accordance with an external operation mode designation signal to produce a floating point sum or difference data in a sign-magnitude format. In a first stage of the adder, the magnitudes of the exponent data of the input data are compared by a subtractor or a comparator and the magnitudes of the mantissa data of the input data are compared by a subtractor or a comparator. An actual operation mode for the mantissa data of the input data is determined, on the basis of the compare results of the exponent data and the mantissa data and the external operation mode designation signals, so that the operation result data is always expressed in a sign-magnitude format.

A plurality of independent cells having a regular octagonal or circular cross section are arranged in the form of a lattice. Cross-sectionally square independent cells are substituted for two octagonal or circular cells in the central portion of the lattice arrangement. These two square independent cells are so formed that each side of the cells has the largest possible length when the cells are placed among the adjacent cells having a regular octagonal or circular cross section. Spacer support rods serving also as water rods are inserted into the square cells in such a fuel spacer, which consists of a combination of cells having a regular octagonal or circular cross section and cells having a square cross section as mentioned above, to form a fuel assembly.

Disclosed is an automatic anticipatory control system for controlling, by one common control quantity, a plurality of points of operation that can be changed over individually and arbitrarily between start and stop operations and between an automatic operation mode and a manual operation mode. The system includes a master controller for obtaining a control signal for each of the points of operation that are operating in the automatic operation mode, on the basis of the sum of biases of the points of operation that are operating in the automatic operation mode, the sum of loads to be borne by the points of operation that are operating in the automatic operation mode on the basis of the common control quantity and the number of the points of operation that are operating in the automatic operation mode; a plurality of sub-loop controllers each disposed for each of the points of operation and generating a driving control instruction for each point of operation on the basis of the control signal; and driving means for practically driving the corresponding points of operation on the basis of the driving control instruction of each sub-loop controller.

A plant model is constructed with a mathematical procedure known as the Kalman filter. The presumed value or predictive value of a certain parameter of a plant is compared with the actually-measured value of the parameter, and the state transition matrix and drive matrix of the Kalman filter are corrected. When a parameter which is a direct controlled object is difficult of actual measurement, the model is corrected by utilizing another parameter whose actual measurement value is easily obtained. When the plant has a feedback control system based on the proportional-plus-integral control, the gain of the system is corrected in correspondence with the corrections of the elements of the matrices.

A central processing unit for executing instructions of variable length in which an operand specifier for specifying the addressing mode of an operand is independent of an operation code for ascertaining the kind of an operation and the number of operands. Each operand specifier is formed of one or more data bytes, and has a stop bit flag indicating whether or not the particular operand specifier is the last operand specifier. By adding the stop bit flag, the operand specifier can be shared, and different processing can be executed with an identical operation code. In a case where, when operation code decoding means has provided an output indicative of the last operand, the stop bit flat is not detected in the corresponding operand specifier, the corresponding instruction is detected as an error.

A data processing system for supporting a virtual memory is disclosed. Prior to the start of main memory write operation, a processor checks to see if a store buffer has a vacant area to store data to be written into a main memory to execute a current instruction. If a page fault occurs during the main memory write operation, the processor continues to store the subsequent write data for the current instruction and the corresponding virtual or logical addresses in the store buffer to complete execution of the current instruction.

A symmetric type loop communication system having no master station, in which a plurality of control stations connected to a loop communication path each have a timer with its set time different from each other control station. The timer of a station is reset when a transmission right signal (GA signal) from another control station is received. On the other hand, a GA signal is sent out to another control station together with a message frame when the timer thereof has counted to a predetermined state.

Condensation system for use in a power plant. The condensate system includes side stream condenser defining therein first and second hot wells. Condensate is delivered from the first to second hot well through a condensate feed line. Condensate is introduced from the condensate feed line into a tank through a first spill-over line. Condensate is supplied from the second hot well to the power plant through a main condensate feed line. Condensate is introduced from the main condensate feed line into the tank through a second spill-over line. Actuator is operative in response to signal from a level detector detecting level of condensate in the first hot well, to regulate opening degree of a supplementary feed valve in the supplementary feed line, to close one of first and second spill-over valves in the first and second spill-over lines, respectively, and to open the other spill-over valve.
