Abstract

In the operation of a nuclear power plant (NPP), to adjust the capacity of NPP is necessary. When the NPP capacity is changed the nuclear fission is also changed. The methods used in changing the capacity of NPP include: changing the boron concentration, changing the position of the control rod groups, and changing the boron concentrations and the position of the control rod groups together. This report presents some results of the research, measurement boron concentrations when nuclear power plans OPR1000 critically state in the cases of ARO, ARI SB, ARI R1, R5 = 191 cm on the basis of the bisection method in the boron concentrations adjustment. The experiment is performed on core the simulator for OPR 1000 nuclear power plant. The results in the 4 cases were similar with NPP operating data using OPR1000 reactor.
