Study of the Reactor Control System of MSHIM in AP1000

الملخص EN

According to the mechanism analysis and simulation of power control system of MSHIM in AP1000, a modified MSHIM (Mechanical Shim) control strategy is presented, which employs the error between the reactor coolant average temperature and its reference value as the unique control signal with a P-controller added.

The modified MSHIM control strategy is verified by simulations of three typical working conditions.

The results show that the modified power control system satisfies the needs of reactor core power control and power distribution control.

The conclusions have reference value for the engineering practice.
