Automated fuel scheduling experience at Gentilly-2
Description
A computer code named SRG2 has been developed at Hydro-Quebec in the modular framework and data structure of the FMPD fuel management code and has been implemented for fuel scheduling at Gentilly-2. SRG2 has been designed to fulfill the need to forecast power distribution and rate of depletion trends for fuel management purposes. It uses a two dimensional approach to predict fuel burnup and power distributions and has a built-in fueling sites selection algorithm based on a power shaping approach. This paper presents the principle highlights of this program and describes its performance with regard to fueling objectives and constraints
