[en] The research nuclear reactors have been fundamental part in the evolution of the nuclear power plants and they have been used in the training for the obtaining of operation licenses of radioactive facilities. For purposes of training of professionals in nuclear engineering, it is interesting to know the benefit that can be obtained by means of the virtual representation of a research nuclear reactor TRIGA, with which they are possible the practice to be realized them but common that to date they are carried out in different nuclear facilities of training throughout the world. The simulation has become a valuable tool in the personal preparation, having obtained ambient and very approximate situations to the reality. The physical models of kinetics of neutrons, heat transfer, Cherenkov effect, dynamics of the xenon, as well as the virtual instrumentation is contemplated in this development. The instrumentation and control panels of a research reactor, failures waited for in the use of this equipment, physical consequences to instruments, virtual personnel and facilities, as well as the administrative and legal aspects that it requires to meet an authorized operator, must be available and they are considered in the first virtual approach. The obtaining of the reactor time constant comprises of the mathematical model that provides to the operator of a direct way the knowledge of the changes of power. The coolant and moderator are modeled as well as the retardations that appear in the measurements and controls that can be introduced from the virtual console. In the simulator the four possible states of operation of the TRIGA can be had. At the moment also the monitoring can be realized and control in remote form, thus the control and supervision interface for the remote operation will be analyzed in their benefits and possible risks in the instruction processes.
