Objectives:
The main objective of this training course is to familiarize the participants with the operation of a nuclear power plant under normal, abnormal and accident conditions using a real-life user interface HMI platform under real-time conditions. The course consists of theoretical parts (T = theory) followed by practical training and exercises on the EPR Engineering Simulator (SIM = simulator) with the OM690 MMI interface.
Content:
- Introduction to nuclear power plant operation
- Overview of operational and safety targets (T module)
- Methods and tools of operation (operating manuals, MMI system, Technical Specifications) (T/SIM module)
- Introduction to simulator operation (SIM module)
- Introduction to normal plant operation
- Systems overview and plant conditions (T module)
- Load ramps (T / SIM module)
- Strategies during abnormal plant operation
- Definitions and methods (concept of turbine trip, partial trip and reactor trip (T module)
- Examples and exercises of abnormal transients (SIM module)
- Examples and exercises regarding abnormal operation transients (SIM module)
- Accident management
- Definitions and methods (safety systems, lines of defense, diversity) (T module)
- Examples and exercises regarding accidents (SIM module)
- Overview of beyond-design-basis accidents (T/SIM module)
Target Group:
All engineering personnel involved in design, installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance of an EPR-type Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR).
Prerequisites:
Basics knowledge of EPR Plant Operation and Technology is required. Relevant
work experience in a PWR nuclear power plant or participation in the B252EPR or B257EPR Technology courses are advantageous.
Duration:
4 days
Other Information:
Participants: 4 to 8 persons. This training course is available in English only
