Abstract

The study is devoted to the development of object-oriented analysis for an automated control system to enhance the capabilities of manoeuvring a nuclear power unit with the WWER-1000 by switching the power control programmes of the NPP during its operation. The research was conducted to check whether the reactor unit was stable or not at the in-operation transition mode. According to the simulation results, control programmes during the operation of the nuclear power plant can be switched. The reactor unit remains in a stable state, which is evidenced by the values of the axial offset as a quantitative measure of the reactor stability. By using the suggestion and manoeuvring not only the capacity of the nuclear power plant but also the control programmes, it is possible to bring the consumption schedule of electric power to conformity with the schedule of electric power generation without affecting the safety of the nuclear power plant in operation.
