Abstract

The instability occurring of the OTSG (Once-Through Steam Generator) in naval craft nuclear power plants is presented by the multivariable frequency domain theory. As concerning coupling interactions of the OTSG tubing, it is more accurate for analyzing the instability of OTSG compared to the common single variable method. A mathematical model for the system is derived from the fundamental equations by using the perturbation, Laplace-transform and the nodalization techniques. The stable boundary and parameters which influence the stability of the system are evaluated through computer simulation.

Kurzfassung

Die bei Durchlaufdampferzeugern (OTSG) in Schiffskernkraftwerken auftretenden Instabilitäten werden mit Hilfe der multivariaten Frequenzbereichstheorie dargestellt. In Bezug auf die Kopplungswechselwirkungen der OTSG Röhren, führt die Analyse der Instabilität des OTSG zu genaueren Ergebnissen, verglichen mit der Methode einzelner Variablen. Ein mathematisches Modell für das System wird aus den fundamentalen Gleichungen mit Hilfe der Störungstheorie, der Laplace-Transformation und von Nodalisierungsverfahren entwickelt. Die Randbedingungen und Parameter, die die Stabilität des Systems beeinflussen wurden mit Hilfe einer Computersimulation ausgewertet.
