Dynamic analyses and control systems for steam generators in LMFBRs

  • 1. Mitsubishi Atomic Power Industries, Inc., Tokyo (Japan)

Description

The steam generators (SG) of LMFBRs are divided into once-through-, and recirculating-type. The use of the two different SGs in prototype-LMFBRs design has been influenced by the conventional technique of fossil-fired boilers, but from a control system and plant equipment operations point of view, the type of SG has not been selected, because of no comparative evaluation of dynamic behaviour associated with the two-types. In addition, the operational requirements for post scram control of residual heat removal via SG systems is considered to be an important factor where a choice is made of SG-type. In this paper, a control-, and interlock-system of each of the SG cycles is proposed on the basis of dynamic analysis of recirculating versus once-through type, with regard to post scram control and severity of thermal transient.
