Power Upgrading of Nuclear Power Plant by Improving Shutdown System No.1 with FPGA Technology

摘要

Power upgrading of existing nuclear power plants has been a hot topic among the world. There are now many different methods to accomplish this objective. Making the response time of SDS1 shorter is one of them. Here we propose an FPGA realization of the control logic implementation of SDS1, which may shorten the trip parameter processing time and, consequently, enhance the operation power level without disturbing the safety margin.
