A Design Basis for the Development of CANDU Control Centres.
Abstract:
The basic design for current CANDU control centres was established in the early 1970's. Plants constructed since then have, for the most part, retained the same basic design. Several factors have led to the need to re-examine the CANDU control centre design for future projects. These factors include the changing roles and responsibilities of operations staff, an improved understanding of operational issues associated with supervisory control, an improved understanding of human error in operational situations, the opportunity for improved plant performance through the introduction of new technologies, and evolving customer requirements. This paper describes the design process for the development of control centres to be implemented in CANDU new plants beyond the year 2000, including the CANDU 9 product.
