Comparision of Control Design Techniques for a Nuclear Reactor
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a comparative study of different control design methods applied to a nuclear reactor model. A nuclear reactor temperature controller is designed using the H-infinity (H∞) control. This advanced controller is compared with a conventional Proportional–Integral–Derivative controller (PID) controller and a traditional optimal controller design using Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) method.

Thermal-Hydraulics analysis of pressurized water reactor core by using single heated channel model
Thermal hydraulics of nuclear reactor as a basis of reactor safety has a very important role in reactor design and control. The thermal-hydraulic analysis provides input data to the reactor-physics analysis, whereas the latter gives information about the distribution of heat sources, which is needed to perform the thermal-hydraulic analysis. In this study single heated channel model as a very f...
متن کاملExperimental Comparision of Model Predictive Control Strategies for the Production of Antibiotics in Fed-batch Fermentations
The main objective of the presented work is to compare two model predictive control strategies by applying them to an antibiotic production in a fed-batch fermentation process. The reactor is modelled as a nonlinear biological compartment system with 13 states. The well-known nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) is compared with a control strategy based on online optimization of the full t...
