A Soft-sensing Model for Feedwater Flow Rate Using Fuzzy Support Vector Regression
Thermal nuclear reactor power is typically evaluated with secondary system calorimetric calculations based on feedwater flow rate measurements. The feedwater flow rate should therefore be measured accurately. Venturi meters are currently used to measure the feedwater flow rate in most pressurized water reactors (PWRs). The long-term operation of a nuclear power plant causes a buildup of corrosi...
متن کاملComplexity-penalized Model Selection for Feedwater Inferential Measurements in Nuclear Power Plants
Inferential sensing is a method which can be used to evaluate the parameters of a physical system based on a set of measurements related to those parameters. The most common method of inferential sensing uses mathematical models to infer the parameter value from correlated sensor values. However, inferential sensing is an ill-posed problem because of non-uniqueness and instability of the soluti...
متن کاملCHARISMA / SAFIR 2010 Reliability of digital control systems in nuclear power plants — Modelling the feedwater system
Assessing the reliability of digital control systems is an important but challenging task. Traditional tools of reliability and risk analysis, such as event and fault trees, have limitations. Some dynamic methods, such as dynamic flowgraph methodology and Markov models, seem to hold promise but evidence of their suitability and utility is still scarce. This report deals with the reliability ass...
متن کاملK V Santhosh: Fusion of Venturi and Ultrasonic Flow Meter for Enhanced Flow Meter Characteristics Using Fuzzy Logic
This paper proposes a technique for measurement of liquid flow using venturi and ultrasonic flow meter(UFM) to have following objectives a) to design a multi-sensor data fusion (MSDF) architecture for using both the sensors, b) improve sensitivity and linearity of venturi and ultrasonic flow meter and c) detect and diagnosis of faults in sensor if any. Fuzzy logic algorithm is used to fuse outp...
متن کاملPower Plants Monitoring for Reverse Power Flow Evaluation
Power plant generators are important components of an electrical energy system. They should be constantly monitored and protected in order to maintain the quality and reliability of the power supply. Otherwise, generators may occur in case of faults or incorrect operation. One of them is reverse power condition. Reverse power flow can be cause important problems if it is not considered in the p...
