Application: Device for controlling a plurality of nuclear reactors (Patent ID: US20240153657A1)
The patent filed by Electricite de France SA describes a device for controlling multiple nuclear reactors, each equipped with sensors to measure operating parameters and a control system. The device includes a monitoring system that tracks the state of each reactor, a database storing reactor data, and a planning system for scheduling maintenance operations. The monitoring system communicates with all sensors and records information such as reactor usage, component status, fuel condition, and planned changes. Maintenance operations are categorized as critical or non-critical, with critical tasks being left to reactor control systems or personnel, while non-critical tasks are managed by the monitoring system. The planning system can provide a standard maintenance schedule or customize it based on individual reactor conditions and recorded data.
The patent also outlines a method for controlling multiple nuclear reactors, involving measuring operating parameters, monitoring reactor states using sensor data and a database, and planning maintenance operations based on this information. The method includes assigning importance levels to maintenance tasks, distinguishing between critical and non-critical operations. Critical tasks are handled by individual reactor control systems, while non-critical tasks follow a standard maintenance schedule. The method allows for the addition of new maintenance operations through a human-machine interface, with data being used to optimize maintenance strategies and adjust maintenance frequencies as needed. The system ensures the integrity, confidentiality, and authentication of communication between reactors and control systems, enhancing overall safety and efficiency in managing multiple nuclear reactors.
