TRIGA PUSPATI reactor: model analysis and accuracy
Abstract
There are many challenging issues with research reactor, such as time variation and uncertainty. Since its first criticality in 1982, the biggest changes in TRIGA PUSPATI Reactor system is the replacement of instrumentation and control console system from analogue to digital in 2013. Apart from providing methods of controlling the power reactor via the control rod movement, the Instrumentation and Control Console System also provides monitoring and display for all reactor parameters to protect the reactor from undue influences or abnormal circumstances. Meanwhile, the simulation model of the TRIGA PUSPATI Reactor system has been developed in the Simulink-MATLAB. The simulation model development is based on the research reactor mathematical representatives and the real plant parameters of TRIGA PUSPATI Reactor. However, the performance of this simulation model needs to be evaluated. Since there is no report or paper work found on the performance of the simulation model to represent the real system of RTP, the present study aims to carry out an analysis for more rigorous understanding of the TRIGA PUSPATI Reactor model simulation through validation and verification methods. After analysing the result, it was found that the simulation model has a good representation of a real plant.
