Description
The development of the French nuclear power plant network has given rise to the design and commissioning of a significant number of simulators. They can be divided into two categories: training simulators, design and operating simulators or analyzers. Full-scope or training simulators, initially designed for power plant operator training, play an increasingly important role in validation, adjustment and evaluation of accident and incident procedures from both the technical and formal aspects. Operating analysis simulators are additional tools in the armory of project engineers or safety analysis engineers. These simulators reap the benefits of advanced thermohydraulic design codes and are capable of effortless result analysis due to visualization of physical phenomena in real time
