An analog type turbine control system in a nuclear power plant in Korea was replaced by a digital type control system successfully. The turbine simulator was used to verify and validate the perfection of newly developed digital control system prior to its actual installation. In this paper, the newly developed turbine speed control system, ie. governor will be introduced together with how to simulate entire control loop. After that, we will compare the comparison of simulation result in laboratory with pre startup simulation result. Eventually the performance of actual operation result was testified.

In this article, we present the novel approach of avoiding temporal insufficiency of data blocks, jitter, which occurs due to the commencement of new session. We propose to make the sufficient amount of data blocks available on memory such that the ongoing session can survive the cycle extension. This technique is called ″pre-buffering″. We examine two different approaches in pre-buffering: (i) loads all required data blocks prior to starting playback and (ii) incrementally accumulates the data blocks in each cycle. We develop an elaborate model to determine the appropriate amount of data blocks necessary to survive the cycle extension and to compute startup latency involved in loading these data blocks. The simulation result shows that limiting the disk bandwidth utilization to 60% can greatly improve the startup latency as well as the buffer requirement for individual streams.

The initial condition of a core transient should be consistent with real core state for the simulation of the core tansient. The initial xenon distribution, which can not be measured in the core, has a significant effect on the transient with xenon dynamics. In the simulation of the transient starting from non-equilibrium xenon state, the accurate initialization of the non-equilibrium xenon distribution is essential for the prediction of the core transient behavior. In this study, a xenon initialization method to predict the core transient more accurately was developed through the equivalent pre-xenon-oscillation which represents the tenon oscillation before the transient and verified by the application of the simulation for a startup test of Yonggwang Unit 3.
