  • Publication number: 20230140271
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a data processing apparatus includes a processor. The processor calculates, from the first measurement data, a first differential value set that is a set of first differential values in a time direction at a time included in the first period of the measurement values of the sensor of interest. The processor calculates, from the second measurement data, a second differential value set that is a set of second differential values in a time direction at a time included in the second period of the measurement values of the sensor of interest. The processor generates a first differential value distribution and a second differential value distribution using the second differential value set.

  • Publication number: 20220137611
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a processing circuit classifies a time-series data corresponding to process amounts generated in a target facility into groups. For each of groups, the processing circuit applies time-series data included in the group to a first auto-encoder, which differs depending upon each group, and outputs time-series data. The processing circuit applies input difference data, which are based on output time-series data on the process amounts and the input time-series data, to a single second auto-encoder, and outputs difference data. The processing circuit determines an abnormality of the target facility, based on the comparison between addition data which are based on the output difference data and the output time-series data, and the input time-series data.

  • Patent number: 9460819
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, each of driving mechanisms is differently connected to one of control rods located in a nuclear reactor. A driving mechanism drives a connected control rod to be inserted and withdrawn with a high-pressure driving water by opening and closing control valves thereof. Driving time data of unlatch, insertion, withdrawal and settle of each control rod, is stored. The driving time data is measured by a test of insertion and withdrawal at a periodical inspection before starting operation of the nuclear reactor. At least one is selected from the control rods, based on a command to select and drive a control rod. A timing table that prescribes timings to open and close each control valve to unlatch, insert, withdraw and settle the selected control rod, is created based on the driving time data thereof. The selected control rod is driven based on the timing table.

  • Patent number: 8467491
    Abstract: The feedwater controller of a nuclear power plant having three or more feedwater pumps supplying water to the reactor vessel, electric motors driving the feedwater pumps and electric power converters connected to the electric motors is equipped with a flow rate controller and a trip compensation means. The flow rate controller calculates a flow rate to the reactor vessel based on a detected value indicating a condition of the nuclear power plant and a preset value of the water level of the reactor vessel, and generates a rotation speed command signal for the electric motors based on the flow rate command signal. The trip compensation means increases the rotation speed of the electric motors not having tripped if one of the feedwater pumps trips.
