A method for estimating a quantity of a system includes the following steps:
for each variable of a plurality of variables, obtaining a sequence of successive measurements, determining a sequence of successive values of a stability parameter, the parameter being a weighted sum of rates of variation of the variables, identifying a time interval in which the stability parameter is less than or equal to a predetermined threshold for a duration greater than or equal to a predetermined duration, estimating a sequence of successive estimates of a particular variable, a start time of the sequence being included in the time interval, comparing the sequence of estimates and the sequence of measurements, in order to determine an adjustment parameter, and estimating the physical quantity of the system using the adjustment parameter.

A mixing system including: a backup heater which increases an internal pressure of a pressurizer; a spray valve which decreases the internal pressure of the pressurizer; a pressure sensor which detects the pressure inside the pressurizer; and a pressure control unit which performs a feedback control on a spray valve so that the pressure becomes a target pressure based on a detection pressure value detected by the pressure sensor, wherein the pressure control unit includes a PID control unit which performs a feedback control when heating the coolant by the backup heater and outputs a pressure controller signal and a bias setting unit which sets a bias toward the operation side of the spray valve with respect to the pressure controller signal, and wherein the spray valve is operated based on the pressure controller signal subjected to the setting of the bias.

A method for monitoring and acoustic damping a boiling water reactor which includes: a reactor pressure vessel; a steam pipe for transporting steam out from a steam dome of the reactor pressure vessel; a high pressure turbine driven by the steam; a feedwater heater which heats feedwater supplied to the reactor pressure vessel using bleed steam from the high pressure turbine; a bleeding valve which adjusts a flow rate of the bleed steam; and a pressure sensor provided in a main steam line including the steam dome and the steam pipe. The method includes monitoring a fluctuating pressure in the main steam line and controlling an opening degree of the bleeding valve based on a magnitude of the fluctuating pressure.
摘要:
The invention concerns a method of estimating when dryout may occur in a nuclear light water reactor of the boiling water reactor kind. The method includes the use of a formula which expresses the local dryout property of the nuclear reactor. The formula includes at least a first and a second factor. The first factor is a first function that describes how the dryout property depends on the flow of the cooling medium through the nuclear fuel arrangement. The second factor is a second function that describes how the dryout property depends on the axial power profile of the nuclear fuel arrangement. The first and the second functions describe said flow dependence and said axial power profile dependence independently of each other. The invention also concerns a nuclear energy plant, a computer program product (23) and a method of operating a nuclear energy plant.

摘要:
A method for mitigating general corrosion and crack initiation and growth on the surface of a metal components in a water-cooled nuclear reactor. A compound containing a non-noble metal such as zirconium or titanium is injected into the water of the reactor in the form of a solution or suspension. This compound decomposes under reactor thermal conditions to release ions or atoms of the non-noble metal which incorporate in the surfaces of the components, including the interior surfaces of any cracks formed therein. The preferred compounds are zirconium compounds such as zirconium acetylacetonate, zirconium nitrate and zirconyl nitrate. Zirconium incorporated in the oxided surface of a metal component will reduce the electrochemical corrosion potential at the surface to a level below the critical potential to protect against intergranular stress corrosion cracking without the addition of hydrogen.
摘要:
A method for improving the performance and longevity of coatings of metal deposited from aqueous solutions of inorganic, organic or oraganometallic metal compounds. The method involves co-deposition of noble metal or corrosion-inhibiting non-noble metal during growth of oxide film on a component made of alloy, e.g., stainless steels and nickel-based alloys. The result is a metal-doped oxide film having a relatively longer life in the reactor operating environment. In particular, incorporation of palladium into the film provides greatly increased catalytic life as compared to palladium coatings which lie on the oxide surface.
摘要:
A solution or suspension for reducing corrosion of stainless steel components in a water-cooled nuclear reactor. A compound containing a platinum group metal, e.g., palladium, is dissolved in an ethanol/water mixture or suspended in water. The resulting solution or suspension is injected into the water of the reactor. This compound has the property that it decomposes under reactor thermal conditions to release ions/atoms of the platinum group metal which incorporate in or deposit on the oxide film formed on the stainless steel reactor components. The compound may be organic, organometallic (e.g., palladium acetylacetonate) or inorganic in nature.

AN APPARATUS, AND METHOD OF OPERATION THEREOF, TO CONTINUOUSLY MONITOR AND CONTROL THE NEUTRON ABSORPTION PROPERTIES OF CHEMICAL SHIM USED IN REGULATING REACTIVITY OF A PRESSURIZED WATER NUCLEAR REACTOR. COOLANTMODERATOR FLUID, INCLUDING THE SOLUBLE NEUTRON ABSORPTION PROPERTY IN THE CHEMICAL SHIM, IS CONTINUOUSLY PASSED THROUGH A CHAMBER HAVING PLURAL NEUTRON DETECTORS SURROUNDING A NEUTRON SOURCE OF KNOWN STRENGTH. UTILIZING THE NEUTRON ABSORPTIOMETRY PRINCIPLE, A SIGNAL REPRESENTATIVE OF THE CONCENTRATION OF THE ABSORPTION PROPERTIES OF THE CHEMICAL SHIM IN THE COOLANT-MODERATOR IS DERIVED. THIS SIGNAL IS THEN APPLIED THROUGH SIGNAL CONDITIONING MEANS TO A READOUT AND ALARM DEVICE SO THAT CONSTANT MONITORING OF THE SHIM CONCENTRATION ABSORTPION PROPERTIES MAY BE ACCOMPLISHED; ADDITIONALLY, THE SIGNAL MAY BE APPLIED TO MAINTAIN THE CONCENTRATION OF NEUTRON ABSORPTION PROPERTIES OF THE CHEMICAL SHIM IN THE COOLANTMODERATOR AT A DESIRED LEVEL.
