A METHOD OF AND CONTROL SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING A NUCLEAR REACTOR OUTLET TEMPERATURE

摘要

The invention relates to a method of controlling an average temperature of a coolant at a reactor core outlet. The method includes the steps of detecting an actual average temperature of the coolant at the reactor core outlet, comparing the actual average temperature of the coolant at the reactor core outlet with a reference temperature thereby to generate an error signal, and adjusting the actual average temperature of the coolant at the reactor core outlet in response to the error signal. The invention extends to a nuclear reactor outlet temperature control system 10, to a cascade controller for a nuclear reactor, and to a nuclear power plant.
