The Optimal Correcting the Power Value of a Nuclear Power Plant Power Unit Reactor in the Event of Equipment Failures

The paper considers the problem of adjusting the power of a nuclear power plant power unit reactor for those cases when equipment failure occurs. In such circumstances, sometimes it is sufficient to reduce the reactor power, while maintaining the probabilistic level of safe operation of the power unit. The rational number of the reactor power is determined by solving the problem of minimizing the risk criterion in the integral root mean square context. In order to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach, a numerical example is considered. The approach outlined in the paper is focused on improving the power unit control in case of equipment failures.
