Nuclear Steam Plant Systems

Catalog description

This course provides the student with detailed knowledge of the secondary systems in a nuclear power plant, their interface with the primary systems, and the operation and control of these components and systems. Topics include steam generators, main steam systems, condensate and feed water systems, main turbines, main generators and support, control systems, and plant auxiliary systems. Upon completion, students should be able to describe nuclear plant secondary systems, functioning of components, the interactions between the systems parts, the interactions between the various secondary systems, and the interactions between the secondary and primary systems and the control of these systems.
