A FSS combines knowledge of integrated design management, simulation technology, computer science and nuclear power engineering. With simulation integration as a platform, it can support model online revising and commissioning, sound database management, simulation operation management and I/O&network control functions. The system is mainly used to train NPP operators and improve their skill and competence, which is considered a key to ensure the safe and reliable operation of a nuclear power plant. FSS is also an important verification means of updated designs and revised operation regulations in the plant.

System Application (Full-Scope Simulator for Nuclear Power Plants)

• Operator training
• Operator license examination
• Support periodical emergency drills in nuclear power plants according to the requirements of the Sate Nuclear Safety Bureau
• Learning, verifying and confirming the design and modifications of the I&C system (V&V platform), including the human-machine interface part based on computer in the control room, process control, plant operation/emergency instruction, plant control and operation optimization, plant instantaneous state analysis and etc.
