29.10.2014 Fortum Oyj / Vesa-Matti Tikkala Loviisa nuclear power plant (NPP) • The plant units have been running since years 1977 and 1980 using mostly original I&C • Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) – Primary side – Secondary side • Safety – Redundancy – Physical separation – Diversity • Operating principle – Fail safe design 20 29.10.2014 Fortum Oyj / Vesa-Matti Tikkala 10 28/10/2014 Loviisa NPP I&C renewal • Loviisa NPP is going through an instrumentation and control (I&C) renewal project to ensure the availability of the plant until the end of the lifetime. • The I&C renewal project was originally started in year 2005 – A new direction was adopted in 2014 • I&C renewal will be carried out in stages • Installations are done during the normal annual outages – Final installations in 2018 • Suppliers – Rolls-Royce – Metso 21 29.10.2014 Fortum Oyj / Vesa-Matti Tikkala Simulators in Loviisa NPP I&C renewal • Training simulator • Engineering and development simulator • Model for safety analysis and design studies 22 29.10.2014 Fortum Oyj / Vesa-Matti Tikkala 11 28/10/2014 Model development for training and E&D simulators • Model development was started in year 2005 • Safety analysis model was used as a basis -> extension of scope • Main processes, most of the auxiliary processes, automation and electrical power systems are modelled • Requirements: – Real time simulation speed, accuracy, multiple applications • Acceptance Criteria – Pre-selected transients • • • • 23 ~ 120000 binary signals ~ 28000 analogue signals ~ 6000 thermal hydraulic nodes ~ 50000 automation I/Os 29.10.2014 Fortum Oyj / Vesa-Matti Tikkala Simulator training • US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC): – Even 65% of the accident happening in the Nuclear Power Plants happens due to Human Factors • Finnish Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority (STUK): – Simulator training shall be part of the initial and refresher training given to operators who manipulate the reactor controls in the control room. – The simulator facility must be as representative of the plant main control room as possible. – The simulator's behaviour during transient and accident conditions shall adequately well correspond to the plant's behaviour and the range simulated shall cover plant normal operation, operational transients and accidents in the extent appropriate. • Training topics in simulator – Malfunctions and failures – Operating procedures – Events from Loviisa or from other plants 24 29.10.2014 Fortum Oyj / Vesa-Matti Tikkala 12 28/10/2014 Training simulator • Important part of basic training and in yearly continuing training • Training simulator must be adopted to the changes in the plant – especially in the control room. • Loviisa NPP Training Simulator is updated alongside I&C renewal – New I&C system and monitor based control room – New Apros models • Training simulator renewal follows stages of I&C renewal 25 29.10.2014 Fortum Oyj / Vesa-Matti Tikkala Apros in focus of

28/10/2014 E&D simulator - Development of new HMI systems and training simulator • Goal is to assist – Design of new HMI – Development and integration of the new Loviisa NPP • Extensive process model tests • Testing and development of new training simulator – Interfaces and communication between the components – New components 27 29.10.2014 Fortum Oyj / Vesa-Matti Tikkala E&D simulator – HMI and operating procedure design and testing • Simulator assisted Human Machine Interface (HMI) and Operating Procedure design and testing – Large Screen Displays – Reactor Protection System (RPS ) and long term protection system (LPS) HMI pre-validation • Functionalities can be seen and tested before installations The Fortum E&D simulator is a very suitable tool for the testing of systems usability of the new design at those stages in which the training simulator is not yet available. The tests provided useful information for the further development of the HMIs and gave valuable insights of the ways the operators monitor and control the process according the new concept -Jari Laarni, Systems Usability VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland - 28 29.10.2014 Fortum Oyj / Vesa-Matti Tikkala 14 28/10/2014 E&D simulator - Development of new training simulator Instructors Interface 29 29.10.2014 Fortum Oyj / Vesa-Matti Tikkala E&D simulator – Testing of process model • Testing of process model – Whole process model is tested in various tests – In co-operation with Loviisa NPP operators • E&D simulator enables tests where manual operations from operators are needed. • Feedback from the plant personnel • Model is tested in iterations 30 29.10.2014 Fortum Oyj / Vesa-Matti Tikkala 15 28/10/2014 Conclusions • Apros simulator is available for dynamic simulation of process systems • Extensive use of simulators in Loviisa automation renewal – Engineering and development simulator – Second training simulator LOKS 2 will be build • Same process model used in several applications • Efforts to improve process models and tools – APROS, Testing Station • Experience from LARA stage 1 – Good results in using simulator • HMI display design -> operators involved early on • Closed loop I&C testing -> even initial data faults corrected 31 29.10.2014 Fortum Oyj / Vesa-Matti Tikkala References 32 [1] Apros overview, http://www.apros.fi [2] Hänninen, M., ”Phenomenological extension to APROS six-exuation model”, 2009 available:http://www.vtt.fi/inf/pdf/publications/2009/P720.pdf [3] Overview of thermal hydraulic models, http://www.apros.fi [4] Component libraries, http://www.apros.fi [5] Communication, http://www.apros.fi [6] Tahvonen, T., Laakso, P., Wittig, J., Hammerich, K., “Simulation assisted automation testing”, Presented in IFAC Symposium on Power Plants and Power Systems Control, 5-8 July 2009, Tampere, Finland [7] Näveri, J., Tahvonen, T., Hakasaari, P., “Testing and Utilization of Loviisa Full Scope Apros Model in Engineering development Simulator”, 12-18.8.2010, Cape Town, South Africa 29.10.2014 and Fortum Oyj / Vesa-Matti Tikkala 16
