MONITORING METHOD AND MONITORING PROGRAM FOR BOILING WATER REACTOR, AND ACOUSTIC DAMPING METHOD FOR BOILING WATER REACTOR

摘要

A boiling water reactor includes a reactor pressure vessel; a steam pipe for transporting steam generated in the reactor pressure vessel out from a steam dome positioned at an upper part of the reactor pressure vessel; a high pressure turbine connected to the steam pipe and driven by the steam; a feedwater heater which heats feedwater supplied to the reactor pressure vessel using bleed steam flowing from the high pressure turbine to the feedwater heater; a bleeding valve which adjusts a flow rate of the bleed steam; and a pressure sensor provided in a main steam line including the steam dome and the steam pipe. The boiling water reactor further includes a monitor and control system which controls an opening degree of the bleeding valve based on a magnitude of fluctuating pressure in the main steam line that is detected by the pressure sensor.
