Description

A JOYO full scope operator training simulator installed in 1983, is being used with high average unit availability factor of more than 70% per annum. The education and training for the operators using it has been greatly contributing to safety operation of the experimental fast reactor JOYO. The simulator mainly consisting of five control panels, a computer system having two computers and an instructor's console, is able to simulate the plant behaviors and the sequential processes with real time under normal or anomaly conditions. Now, according as the JOYO MK-ILL project which enhances the irradiation capability of JOYO, an upgrading program of the simulator is proceeding with the aim of advancing its efficient usage by improving the training function and the analytical accuracy of the simulator.
