摘要:
Systems and methods of monitoring step movements of control rods of a nuclear power plant, including measuring output signals of a plurality of rod movement coils during a step movement sequence of one or more control rods, analyzing the output signals to determine a direction of the step movement sequence, and comparing one or more output signals to reference output sequence to verify that a step of the control rod has occurred.

Systems and methods of monitoring a rod control system of a nuclear power plant, including calculating impedance of at least one coil of a rod movement mechanism non-intrusively while the system is operating, comparing a measured impedance to a reference impedance, and determining if the measured impedance deviates from the reference impedance value by a predetermined amount to indicate degradation of the rod control system.

摘要:
An automated system for on-line monitoring and coil diagnostics of rod position indicator (RPI) coils coil diagnostic, or RPI coil diagnostic system. The RPI coil diagnostic system performs coil diagnostics for a RPI system in a nuclear power plant. The RPI coil diagnostic system is in electrical communication with and monitors the outputs of the detector coils. The RPI coil diagnostic system measures characteristics of the detector coils that are indicative of the health of the detector coils and/or the connections between the detector coils and the RPI electronics.
