The application of advanced visualisation and simulation techniquesin control room design and operator training nuclear power plants

摘要

The importance of human factors in nuclear power plant centralcontrol room (CCR) design is well recognised. British Nuclear Fuels(BNFL) has gone beyond the now `normal' design process incorporatinghuman factors, and has invested in the development and application ofvirtual reality (VR). The focus of this paper is the design of theSellafield Mox Plant (SMP) CCR, from the design phase through tocommissioning
