| Summary: | A simple version of the hierarchical optimization method is used to solve the control problem for the power distribution of a pressurized water reactor. The control period is about twenty hours. The control objectives include the total power, power distribution and use of boron. The controllers are a rod bank, soluble boron in the coolant and the coolant temperature deviation. A one-dimensional non-linear core model is used, with full xenon-iodine dynamics. |
