Developing a Computer-Based Environment for the Design of Nuclear Power Plants: A Perspective and Philosophy

摘要

This report surveys the usefulness and general design requirements for a large-scale database and database manager for design and analysis of nuclear power plant control systems. The control engineer's and systems integrator's need for timely, accurate, and searchable information for advanced control system design increases with competitive economics and stringent reliability demands. A philosophy is conveyed for the implementation of an integrated, comprehensive database system. (ERA citation 11:000474)
