The First NT Based Nuclear Simulator in Asia

摘要

Kuosheng Nuclear Power Station (KSNPS) is The Second Nuclear Power Plant of Taiwan Power Company (TPC). GSE Power Systems, then Singer Link Simulation Systems, delivered the current KSNPS simulator in 1985. The simulation software is hosted in a Gould 32/8780 computer with MPX-32 Release 1.5 OS. As part of KSNPS Y2K program, the Training Center is to replace the simulator computer system and upgrade models of major systems. The, simulation upgrade specifications were written with the following goals: ? Re-host simulator software to an easy-to-upgrade and low maintenance cost computer system. ? Assure Y2K compliant operating system (OS). ?Make the simulator software accessible through desktop workstations connected by a local'LAN. ? Have a real-time simulation environment which allows control room training and system model development at the same time. ? Add high fidelity, state-of-art real-time simulation models for major systems. ? Utilize software development tools/code generators with graphical user interface. ? Add a state-of-art Instructor Station. Based on the first two goals, a server/workstation with Pentium family.CPUs, running Windows NT? were chosen as the preferred computer system and OS.
