Abstract

A highly complex nonlinear Reactor Regulating System (RRS) of Canadian Deuterium Uranium Pressurized Heavy Water Reactor (CANDU-PHWR) based Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) simulated in the present research. The internal design of RRS is secured and vendor controlled which is embedded in AC-132 Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). Therefore, the problem of the identification of the RRS controller model is addressed. A data-driven Fractional Order Nonlinear MIMO Hammerstein Model (FO-NC-MIMO-HM) of NPP is identified using an Adaptive Immune Algorithm (AIA) based on a Global Search Strategy (GSS) and Auxiliary Model Recursive Least Square Method (AMRLSM). Parameters of FO-MIMO-HM are identified using Innovative Real-Time Plant Operational Data (IRTPOD). The original PLC-based controller is replaced with a new Fractional Order Convolutional Neural Network (FO-CNN) based Fractional Order Nonlinear Controller (FO-NC). Therefore, a visual Simulator is developed for detailed modeling, control, simulation, and analysis of the proposed design scheme for RRS in Visual Basic (VB) Software. The performance of the proposed design scheme is tested and validated for different modes of RRS against benchmark data obtained from Plant Data Recorder (PDR) and found in close agreement well within the design bounds.
