Based on the present MODE-G control strategy, an improved new core control strategy is developed for the initial cycle utilizing gadolinium burnable poisons. With the relaxed axial offset control (RAOC) procedure to limit the core axial offset (AO) in a band region, load follow operations are simulated under the improved core control strategy and the simulation results are compared with those obtained using MODE-G control strategy. Additionally, a preliminary evaluation of the impact of the an ejected rod with the improved core control strategy is performed. It is shown that the improved core control strategy can control the core axial power distribution more satisfactorily and effectively.

A new hexagonal fuel assembly(FA) design which has two rows of fuel rods between the hexagonal moderator channels is proposed for the thermal supercritical water cooled reactor(SCWR). The two-row hexagonal fuel assembly concept is first and foremost considered for the performance of uniform moderation and sufficient moderation, and with the respect of structural performance and thermal-hydraulic performance. The physical performance of the two-row hexagonal FA with acceptable configuration is investigated. The results show clearly that a better balance between uniform moderation and sufficient moderation can be obtained in the two-row hexagonal fuel assembly. The design objective of the local power peaking factor less than 1.10 can be achieved under the condition of using the same enrichment fuel and containing no burnable poison.

At present, the information and control system (I&C) and operation support system (OSS) of the nuclear power plants (NPPs) are designed separately; their structures and functions are independent. So, the compatibility, availability and dependability of them are not desirable, and the comprehensive advantages of them are not to exert fully. In order to resolve these problems, this paper presents a new idea that designing and developing the I&C and the OSS coordinately, so that their structures and functions are integrated. Firstly, this paper reviewed the evolution and application status of the OSS. And then, the realization methods and forms for the integrated system are analyzed. At last, the hierarchy and architecture of the integrated system which have the double-functions of the I&C and OSS is founded. Analysis and study is also carried out in terms of the hierarchy and characteristics of the integrated system.

To solve the reactor loading pattern optimization problem in realistic nuclear power plants, this paper presents a new optimization method - Interval Bound Algorithm, and introduces the origin of the algorithm and describes its implementation procedure. Based on this algorithm, the corresponding parallel loading pattern optimization code of IBALPO is developed using Fortran95. Finally, this code system is used to solve a realistic and difficult reload problem to show its performance, and a better pattern is obtained compared to the one searched by experienced engineers.

The absence of radiolytic-gas bubbles strongly affects the steady operation of Aqueous Homogeneous reactors (AHRs), and because of the buoyancy and collision effects, the bubble behavior and their steady distribution in the reactor is always hard to predict. Now, computation methods of AHRs always use a function to express the bubble distribution approximately. Related investigation shows that in CFX, using Multiple Size Group (MUSIG) model, the multi-phase simulation results predict the bubble behavior well, and tally with the experimental results of an AHR. This paper firstly introduces the neutronic and thermal-hydraulic couple code FMCAHR_CFX, and in the last chapter, FMCAHR_CFX is used for a preliminary analysis of a simple AHR.

This paper analyzes the variation of A-phase and Bphase pulse signals that displacement sensor outputs. A new anti-jamming counting approach is designed according to Gray code. This counting approach does not cause error count and counting precision is improved by four times frequency count. The principle of hardware and software is indroduced in two application examples. In the first example, the input ports of AT89C52 MCU are connected to the outputs of hand rotary encoder. The MCU constantly checks the state of inputs in the timer interrupt and counts with this counting approach, then the count value is transferred to host computer through the RS422 interface. In the other example, the outputs of optical encoder are connected to the I/O ports of CPLD/FPGA chip which can count with this counting approach. Then the count value is transferred to host MCU/DSP through data lines. The applications resulted that the approach is good and the hardware circuit is simple, stable and reliable. The method has a certain practical value and can be applied to the antijamming counting for the other sensors which have the same output waveform.

The piezoelectric fiber composite actuators are new kind of piezoelectric actuators which have high mechanical performance and flexibility. In order to raise the induced strain of piezoelectric fiber composite actuators, two piezoelectric unit's construction equations about longitudinal length extension vibration mode are established. According to the construction equations for piezoelectric actuators, some finite models are established. Then the performance of mechanics is analyzed in detail. The anisotropy is characterized. ANSYS is employed to numerically research the influence of piezoelectric constants on the piezoelectric fiber composite actuators' induced strain. The distribution of induced strain is given by FEM. Several rules are summed. The results show much high induced strain can be obtained by increasing elastic modulus E 1 , Poisson's ratio μ 12 , and decreasing elastic modulus E 3 , shear modulus G 13 , dielectric coefficient ε 11 and ε 33 .
