Optimization of the man-machine interface for LMFBRs

  • 1. Westinghouse Hanford Co., Richland, WA

Description

An effort is under way to optimize the roles of man and machine in control of liquid-metal-cooled fast breeder reactors. The work reported here describes two systems: (1) MIDAS, presently in use, is a large data base system developed for the Fast Flux Test Facility (FFTF) as an aid to operators in determining how to proceed with maintenance and repairs on plant components and (2) the Procedure Prompting System is being developed to demonstrate a new methodology for automatically generating instructions to aid plant recovery in off-normal conditions. Methodology for this system has been demonstrated on a model of a small subsystem of FFTF
