Modeling and Simulation for Nonlinear Pressurized Water Reactor Cores Using Gap Metric and Fuzzy Model with Transfer Function

摘要

This investigation is to deal with the modeling issue for nonlinear pressurized water reactor cores. Nonlinearity measure with gap metric and T-S fuzzy modeling are exploited to build the fuzzy model of a nonlinear core which approximates this nonlinear core model. The gap metric of the core is proposed to quantify the core nonlinearity. The curve in the whole range of core power level that is solved adopting the gap metric is the core nonlinearity measure. In terms of the measure, six linearized core models at six power levels are selected as local models of the nonlinear core model. Based on the local models and the introduction of the triangle membership function, the core fuzzy model is achieved. The core fuzzy model and nonlinear core model are simulated. Simulation results show that the core fuzzy model can approximate and substitute the nonlinear core model.
