Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of nuclear facility control and testing technology, and in particular to a nuclear power plant priority module interface test system. Background Art
[0002] Safety-grade actuators (such as electric valves, pumps, fans, etc.) are key equipment used in nuclear power plants to realize the driving functions of dedicated safety facilities, and play an important role in ensuring the safe operation of nuclear power plants.
[0003] Safety-level actuators, under varying operating conditions, must receive control commands from various I&C systems within a nuclear power plant, including the reactor protection system (RPS), the kernel diversity protection system (KDS), and the control system. To ensure that RPS commands are prioritized in emergencies, nuclear power plant I&C systems typically include an independent priority module. This module prioritizes commands from the RPS over those from other I&C systems and outputs the final command to the safety-level actuators.
[0004] To ensure the proper functioning of a nuclear power plant's dedicated safety features under accident conditions, regular testing of the RPS system's command paths is required. This testing typically employs a segmented, overlapping strategy, sequentially examining the following three steps: "RPS system output to the priority module (testing whether the RPS system's commands are correctly transmitted to the priority module)," "priority module internal processing (testing whether the priority module's internal logic and command processing are correct)," and "priority module output to the safety-level actuator (testing whether the priority module's output commands are correctly transmitted to and executed by the safety-level actuator on site)."
[0005] To test the "RPS system output to the priority module" link, nuclear power plants utilize a nuclear power plant priority module interface test system. In existing technology, this interface test system is constructed by introducing a maintenance tool (loaded with customized periodic test software) and a test interface device based on the RPS system. The maintenance tool is connected to the RPS system and the test interface device. The maintenance tool uses the customized periodic test software to inject test instructions into the RPS system and reads the test feedback signal from the priority module from the test interface device, forming a closed-loop confirmation mechanism. However, this interface periodic test has the following problems:
[0006] 1) The maintenance tools, test interface devices, and periodic test software used are all non-safety-grade and have low reliability. Abnormalities in the maintenance tools and periodic test software may cause test failures and may even cause the RPS system to erroneously trigger test instructions after the bypass is released, resulting in the risk of malfunction of safety-grade actuators on site.
[0007] 2) Since maintenance tools and test interface devices need to be introduced into the RPS system, personnel are required to manually plug in wires and power supply before and after the test. The test steps are complicated and the level of automation is low. Utility Model Content

[0045] The key points of the nuclear power plant priority module interface test system provided above are as follows:
[0046] 1) Use a highly reliable safety-level control and display device to connect to the three safety-level controllers in the RPS system through network communication to trigger test instructions and receive test feedback to implement priority module interface testing; and use the RPS bypass device to send manually triggered bypass instructions to the bypass status judgment unit through hard wiring;
[0047] 2) The SETA / SETB controller is equipped with a bypass state judgment unit, a test instruction trigger unit, a test time control unit, and a real instruction blocking unit. The bypass state judgment unit is mainly responsible for screening out bypass instructions, the test instruction trigger unit is mainly responsible for blocking the test instruction trigger in the non-bypass state, the test time control unit is mainly responsible for controlling the test instruction length, and the real instruction blocking unit is mainly responsible for eliminating the interference of the real instruction on the test results.
[0048] 3) The priority module is connected to the SETA and SETB controllers through hard wiring, receives the bypass status and test command signals from the RPS controller, and sends test feedback to the SETA and SETB controllers.
[0049] The following describes the working principle of the nuclear power plant priority module interface test system provided above in detail, taking n=1 and T=10 as an example:
[0050] The safety-level control and display device is a high-reliability and high-safety device. It provides a human-machine interface, which makes it convenient for test personnel to send manually triggered test instructions and manual reset instructions (test instructions and manual reset instructions are both high-level signals) to the SETA controller and SETB controller through the human-machine interface, and receive and display the final test results, such as Figure 4As shown, the human-machine interface of the safety level control and display device has operation buttons such as "reset" and "test", as well as multiple indicator lights. The safety level control and display device forms a communication network with the SETA controller, SETB controller and the third controller, for example Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown in the figure, a communication network is formed with these controllers using optical fiber and communication equipment. As an integral part of the RPS system, the safety-level control and display device meets the design requirements of the safety-level DCS (digital control system) of nuclear power plants.
[0051] To ensure that the driving function of the dedicated safety facilities is not affected during interface testing, the embodiments of the present application adopt a separate testing strategy: when conducting an interface test via the SETA controller, the SETA controller is bypassed (bypassing refers to bypassing the SETA controller within the entire RPS system. The bypassed SETA controller no longer participates in normal control operations. Its output signal is blocked in the priority module and cannot be sent to the on-site safety-level actuator, preventing the test instructions from triggering the safety-level actuator) while the SETB controller maintains normal control operations; when conducting an interface test via the SETB controller, the SETB controller is bypassed while the SETA controller maintains normal control operations. This ensures that only one of the SETA and SETB controllers is bypassed at any given time, while the other maintains normal control operations. The SETA and SETB controllers cannot be bypassed simultaneously at any time, ensuring that the RPS system has critical safety protection in the event of an emergency.
[0052] To enable the RPS bypass device to send a bypass command to the SETA or SETB controller under user control, a three-position rotary switch is included in the RPS bypass device. This switch has three positions: neither the SETA or SETB controller is bypassed (the default state, which is in the middle position), only the SETA controller is bypassed, and only the SETB controller is bypassed. By manually rotating this switch, the tester can flexibly control the status of the SETA and SETB controllers.
[0053] Taking the bypass of only the SETA controller as an example, after the test personnel send a bypass instruction to the SETA controller by operating the RPS bypass device, the bypass status judgment unit will send the bypass instruction received by the SETA controller to the first input end of the i-th priority module via the i-th DO drive logic unit, and the bypass status judgment unit will send a SETA test ready signal after confirming that the SETA controller is bypassed.
[0054] Bypass command and SETA test ready signal are both high level signals, see Figure 2 :
[0055] In the test instruction trigger unit, when the test instruction and the SETA test ready signal exist at the same time, the test instruction A output by the first AND gate AND1 is a high level signal;
[0056] In the test time control unit, when the test command and the SETA test-ready signal are present simultaneously, the first pulse generating circuit, Pulse1, begins outputting a high level for 10 seconds upon detecting a rising edge in the input signal, then returns to a low level. The delay circuit delays the input signal output by 5 seconds. That is, during the 0-10 second test period, test lockout command C is low from 0-5 seconds and high from 6-10 seconds. Furthermore, when the test command and the SETA test-ready signal are present simultaneously, and there is no manual reset command from the safety-level control and display device, test command B is high from 0-10 seconds.
[0057] In the real instruction locking unit, when the test instruction B exists, the real instruction is locked by the fourth AND gate AND4 and cannot be output; during the existence of the test instruction B, affected by the test locking instruction C, the test instruction D is high from 0 to 5 seconds and low from 6 to 10 seconds; at this time, the output of the first OR gate OR1 is high from 0 to 5 seconds and low from 6 to 10 seconds; when the output of the first OR gate OR1 is high, the test dedicated safety facility driving instruction received by the priority module is high, and when the output of the first OR gate OR1 is low, the test dedicated safety facility driving instruction received by the priority module is low, thereby verifying that the hard-wired path from the SETA controller to the priority module can be triggered normally, and can also be restored to the original state (reset) after being triggered, proving that there is no fault in the hard-wired path.
[0058] Based on the bypass instructions it receives, the priority module determines whether to output the dedicated test safety facility drive instructions to the SETA test feedback processing unit or the SETB test feedback processing unit. Continuing with the example of a SETA controller bypass, the priority module outputs the dedicated test safety facility drive instructions to the SETA test feedback processing unit but not to the SETB test feedback processing unit (DO in the figures represents an output pin, and DI represents an input pin). The priority module includes a bypass blocking unit and a priority management & drive management unit. The dedicated test safety facility drive instructions output by the bypassed SETA controller are blocked by the bypass blocking unit in the priority module and cannot be sent to the on-site safety-level actuator via the priority management & drive management unit, preventing the test instructions from triggering the safety-level actuator.
[0059] See also Figure 3, the output of the second OR gate OR2 is low during the test, the output of the eighth AND gate AND8 is low from 0 to 5 seconds and high from 6 to 10 seconds, the output of the fifth AND gate AND5 is low from 0 to 5 seconds and high from 6 to 10 seconds, the output of the sixth AND gate AND6 is high from 0 to 5 seconds and low from 6 to 10 seconds, the output of the first RS trigger is low from 0 to 5 seconds and high from 6 to 10 seconds, and the output of the second RS trigger is high from 0 to 10 seconds; thus, as long as there is no fault in the tested circuit, the following will appear: the F→T indicator light is on from 0 to 10 seconds; the T→F indicator light is off from 0 to 5 seconds and on from 6 to 10 seconds, and the indicator light corresponding to the SETA test feedback processing unit is off from 0 to 5 seconds and on from 6 to 10 seconds.
[0060] The above operating principle analysis is based on n = 1. When n > 2, as long as the tested line is fault-free, the following conditions will apply: the F→T indicator will be on from 0 to 10 seconds; the T→F indicator will be off from 0 to 5 seconds and on from 6 to 10 seconds; the indicator corresponding to the first SETA test feedback processing unit will be off from 0 to 5 seconds and on from 6 to 10 seconds; and the indicator corresponding to the second SETA test feedback processing unit will be off from 0 to 5 seconds and on from 6 to 10 seconds. When n > 2, if the line from the SETA controller to the first priority module fails (e.g., it cannot be opened or closed), the F→T or T→F indicator will be off from 0 to 10 seconds; the indicator corresponding to the first SETA test feedback processing unit will be off from 0 to 10 seconds, and the indicator corresponding to the second SETA test feedback processing unit will be on from 0 to 10 seconds.
[0061] In summary, the nuclear power plant priority module interface test system provided in the embodiments of the present application includes a safety-level control and display device, an RPS bypass device, three safety-level controllers (SETA, SETB, and a third controller), and n priority modules. The user is responsible for bypassing the SETA and SETB controllers and sending test instructions through the RPS bypass device and the safety-level control and display device, ensuring that only one of the SETA and SETB controllers is bypassed at any given time, while the other maintains normal control. The third controller is responsible for processing test feedback after bypassing the SETA or SETB controller. The user only needs to operate the system through the bypass device and the safety-level control and display device to verify the normal operation of the hard-wired path from the SETA / SETB controller to the priority module through a series of logic units and circuits. The test results are then displayed through indicator lights on the safety-level control and display device, thereby improving the automation level of the interface test. Moreover, the interface test system uses safety-level control and display devices to trigger and display feedback of test instructions, eliminating non-safety-level equipment and software such as maintenance tools, test interface devices, and periodic test software, reducing the potential impact of non-safety-level items on the RPS system and reducing the risk of malfunction of on-site safety-level actuators.
[0062] The operation of the tester in this test is very simple. Take the SETA controller bypass as an example: the tester only needs to select SETA controller bypass on the RPS bypass device. The RPS bypass device will then prompt the tester that the SETA controller is in the SETA test bypass ready state. At the same time, the safety-level control and display device will prompt the tester to start the test. Then, the tester observes whether the test results displayed on the safety-level control and display device meet the expectations. If so, the reset operation is selected in the safety-level control and display device to eliminate the corresponding test feedback status display. If not, it indicates that there is a problem in the signal link from the SETA controller to the priority module. The specific fault location can be determined based on the test results displayed in the safety-level control and display device. Finally, the tester cancels the SETA controller bypass in the RPS bypass device and observes that the test ready indicator light goes out. At this point, the interface test from the SETA controller to the priority module is completed.
[0063] In one possible implementation, to ensure critical safety protection in an RPS system emergency, an interlock circuit is provided in the bypass state judgment unit of the X controller to prevent the SETA controller and the SETB controller from being bypassed simultaneously at any time. The X controller sends the bypass command after the interlock processing to the priority module (in one possible implementation, to enhance the reliability of the bypass command, the bypass command after the interlock processing is sent to the priority module via a redundant hard-wired link. This design can prevent the safety-level actuator from malfunctioning due to the loss of the bypass command after the interlock processing, see Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 A-Bypass 1 and A-Bypass 2 in the example). After receiving the bypass command, the priority module sends a feedback signal to the RPS bypass device, SETA controller, and SETB controller, forming a closed-loop confirmation mechanism. The RPS bypass device displays the test-ready indication only when it confirms that the bypass command manually triggered by the user in the RPS bypass device matches the feedback signal from the priority module. The SETA controller and SETB controller trigger the safety-level control and display devices to display the test-ready indication only when they confirm that the bypass command manually triggered by the user in the RPS bypass device matches the feedback signal from the priority module. This closed-loop confirmation mechanism not only improves the safety of the RPS system but also ensures the smooth progress of the interface test process.
[0064] To achieve this, see Figure 5 , the RPS bypass device includes: a SETA bypass instruction sending end connected to the SETA controller and the SETB controller, a SETB bypass instruction sending end connected to the SETA controller and the SETB controller, and a feedback signal receiving end connected to the priority module;
[0065] The SETB bypass instruction sending end and the feedback signal receiving end are respectively connected to the two input ends of the eleventh AND gate AND11, and the output end of the eleventh AND gate AND11 is connected to the SETB test ready indicator light on the RPS bypass device; the SETA bypass instruction sending end and the feedback signal receiving end are respectively connected to the two input ends of the twelfth AND gate AND12, and the output end of the twelfth AND gate AND12 is connected to the SETA test ready indicator light on the RPS bypass device;
[0066] The bypass state judgment unit in the SETA controller includes a thirteenth AND gate AND13, a fourteenth AND gate AND14, and a fifteenth AND gate AND15; wherein, a first input terminal of the thirteenth AND gate AND13 is connected to the SETA bypass instruction sending terminal; a first input terminal of the fourteenth AND gate AND14 is connected to the SETB bypass instruction sending terminal; an output terminal of the thirteenth AND gate AND13 is connected to the second input terminal of the fourteenth AND gate AND14 after being inverted; an output terminal of the fourteenth AND gate AND14 is connected to the second input terminal of the thirteenth AND gate AND13 after being inverted; an output terminal of the thirteenth AND gate AND13 is also connected to the first input terminal of the fifteenth AND gate AND15 and the D0 drive logic unit; a second input terminal of the fifteenth AND gate AND15 is connected to the feedback signal receiving terminal; and an output terminal of the fifteenth AND gate AND15 is connected to the safety level control and display device.
[0067] Still see Figure 5 Taking the interface test through the SETA controller as an example, the tester manually triggers the SETA bypass instruction on the RPS bypass device. At this time, the SETA bypass instruction sending end is at a high level, and the SETB bypass instruction sending end is at a low level. At this time, the SETA bypass instruction sending end signal and the SETB bypass instruction sending end signal are processed by the interlock circuit in the SETA controller and output a high level. The output signal of the interlock circuit is sent to the priority module through the DO drive logic unit, causing the priority module to send a feedback signal. The feedback signal is high level, and then: the twelfth AND gate AND12 outputs a high level, and the SETA test ready indicator on the RPS bypass device is lit; the eleventh AND gate AND11 outputs a low level, and the SETB test ready indicator on the RPS bypass device remains off; at the same time, the fifteenth AND gate 15 in the SETA controller outputs a high level, and the test ready indicator in the safety level control and display device is lit.
