State of the art control room technologies in Japan

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

Description

Both PWR and BWR utilities and vendor groups have completed the development of new advanced control rooms (ACR) for APWR and BWR. The ACR is characterized by a compact CRT-based operator console which requires only one operator to control the whole plant. Touch-sensitive screens are used for soft-control operations. Results of a validation test indicated that ACR has a good potential for operational improvements, yet there are some problems that need to be resolved before actual implementation. 7 refs
