Prospect of RBMK-NPPS strength monitoring system on-line module development

Abstract System for strength monitoring and residual lifetime (SMS) assessment of NPP equipment makes it possible to improve safety and effectiveness of operation. According to SMS concept it includes two main modules: for on-line data acquisition and diagnostic and for off-line date processing and lifetime assessment. Algorithm for RBMK SMS on-line module is proposed to be based on the basis of “DASHA” expert system shell. Universal expert shell “DASHA” was created using the original matrix method of image identification theory and can be used for on-line diagnostic system development for any complex technological object of arbitrary physical nature.
