Output power control of nuclear reactor using ant lion optimization-based controller

Power level control is a <span>critical issue in nuclear power stations due to its nonlinear dynamics. One of the most commonly used controllers fractional order proportional–integral–derivative (FOPID). The FOPID an enhanced and modern controlling system that has two additional added parameters. In this paper, comparison between particle swarm, gray wolf ant lion optimization techniques performed determine controller reactor pressurized water which fifth model simulated using MATLAB software based on point kinetic model. integral square error (ISE) performance index evaluate three techniques. simulation results show for tuning parameters gives best better than other techniques.</span>
