Description of the control panels. What does a nuclear power plant look like from the inside? Block control panel

Getting to an operating nuclear power plant is an unattainable dream for many.
Multi-level security system, radiation and seething vent nuclear reactor.
...Welcome!

1. Smolensk NPP. Desnogorsk.
One of 10 operating nuclear power plants in Russia.
A nuclear power plant that provides 8% of electricity in the Central region and 80% in the Smolensk region.
And just a huge structure, the scale of which cannot fail to impress.

2. The start of construction of the nuclear power plant was announced in 1973.
And already at the end of 1982, power unit No. 1 was commissioned.
I won’t talk much about the access regime, because it’s impossible, I will only say that it is multi-level.
Each stage of entry into a nuclear power plant has its own type of security. And of course, a lot of special equipment.

3. First of all, when visiting a nuclear power plant, you need to undress.
And then put on everything white, clean...
Right down to socks and caps.

4. A wonderful souvenir from a nuclear power plant. And it's not chewing gum.
You spin the organ, and the earplugs fall into your hand.

5. In principle, there is no particular need for them, because helmets, which also need to be worn, come complete with noise-absorbing headphones.

6. Yes, shoes are also individual.

7. Ta-daaam!
The warrior of light is ready to pass!

8. A mandatory item of clothing is an individual cumulative dosimeter.
Everyone is given their own, which is returned at the end of the day and shows the accumulated dose of radiation.

9. That's it. We're inside.
This is a controlled access area. Ahead is the reactor...

10. Through passages, galleries, through security systems we go inside...

11. And we find ourselves in the control panel of the nuclear power plant.
This is the brain of the station.
Everything is controlled from here...

12. The number of buttons, circuits, lights and monitors dazzles the eyes...

13. I won’t bore you with complicated things. technological terms and processes.
But here, for example, the reactor rods are controlled.

14. Change of control unit - 4 people. They work here for 8 hours.
It is clear that shifts are around the clock.

15. From here both the reactor and the unit itself and the turbines of the nuclear power plant are controlled.

16. It’s also cool, quiet and calm here.

17. A serious key is AZ - “emergency protection”.
Nuclear power plant safety is paramount. The entire system is so perfect that it eliminates outside influence on management.
Automation, in the event of an emergency, can do everything without the participation of people, but it is not in vain that professionals are on duty here.
By the way, shutting down the reactor, if something happens, is not an incident, but a controlled technological procedure.
For preventive maintenance, the reactor is also shut down.

18. Over the 32 years of operation of the nuclear power plant, not a single emergency or increase in background radiation was recorded here.
Incl. and classified above the zero (minimum) level on the international INES scale.
The level of protection of nuclear power plants in Russia is the best in the world.

19. And again - long rows of toggle switches, monitors and sensors.
I don't understand anything...

20. Professionals discuss possible emergency situations.

21. And someone is taking a selfie in a place that is unattainable for ordinary citizens...
Have you noticed that everyone is without helmets? This is so that they don't accidentally fall on anything...

22. Let's go upstairs.
You can take the elevator, or you can also walk to the 8th floor level using steps with special anti-radiation protection.
Looks like it's varnished...

23. High..

24. Again - several cordons of protection.
And here is the central hall of power unit 1.
There are three of these at the Smolensk NPP.

25. The main thing here is the reactor.
It itself is huge - below, but here you can only see its security plateau. These are metal squares - assemblies.
They are a kind of plug with bioprotection that blocks the technological channels of the reactor, which contain fuel assemblies - fuel assemblies with uranium dioxide. There are 1661 such channels in total.
They are the ones who contain fuel cells, which release powerful thermal energy due to a nuclear reaction.
Controlled protection rods are installed between them, which absorb neutrons. With their help, the nuclear reaction is controlled.

26. There is such a loading and unloading machine.

27. Its task is to replace fuel cells. Moreover, it can do this both when the reactor is stopped and when it is running..
Huge, of course...

28. While no one sees...

29. AAA! I'm standing!
There is a hum and vibration underfoot. The feeling is unreal!
The power of a boiling reactor that instantly turns water into steam cannot be expressed in words...

30. In fact, nuclear power plant workers don’t really like it when they walk on the plateau.
"No one steps on your desk..."

31. Really positive people.
See how they glow. And not from radiation, but from love for my work.

32. There is a swimming pool in the hall. No, not for swimming.
Spent nuclear fuel is stored here under water for up to 1.5 years.
And also stands with finished fuel assemblies - see how long they are? Soon their place will be in the reactor.

33. Inside each tube (TVEL) are small cylindrical tablets of uranium dioxide.
“You can sleep with fresh fuel in your arms,” say nuclear power plant workers...

34. Fuel ready for loading into the reactor.

35. The place is undoubtedly impressive.
But the question of radiation is constantly spinning in my head.

36. They called a specialist - a dosimetrist.
The real-time dosimeter in the center of the reactor showed a value slightly higher than on the streets of Moscow.

38. Powerful circulation pumps supplying coolant - water - to the reactor.

39. Here the rumble is already strongest
You can't do without headphones.

40. Let's rest our ears a little during the transition.

41. And again in a loud noise - the turbine hall of the nuclear power plant.

42. Just a huge hall with an incredible number of pipes, engines and units.

43. The steam released from the water that cools the reactor comes here - to the turbogenerators.

44. Turbine - the whole house!
Steam rotates its blades at a speed of exactly 3000 revolutions per minute.
So thermal energy converted to electric.

45. Pipes, pumps, pressure gauges...

46. ​​The exhaust steam is condensed and again supplied to the reactor in liquid form.

47. By the way, the heat from the exhaust steam is also used for the city.
The cost of such heat energy is very small.

48. Radiation control is a completely separate topic.
A multi-stage water filtration system, sensors throughout the nuclear power plant, city and region, constant collection of analyzes and samples from the environment and its own laboratory.
Everything is transparent - reports can be viewed on the Rosenergoatom website in real time.

49. It’s also not easy to leave the controlled access zone.
There's a full radiation check here three times until you're back in your underpants.

50. Well, after responsible work and imaginary experiences, you can have a hearty lunch.

51. The food here is delicious.
By the way, about 4,000 employees work at the nuclear power plant, and average salary about 60 thousand rubles.

52. Well, what can I say - I’m no longer scared.
There is a lot of control. There is order, cleanliness, labor protection and safety everywhere.
After all, Man is a great man - to invent and use something like this...

Visit a nuclear power plant - DONE!
Thanks to Rosenergoatom Concern for this incredible opportunity.

Let's take a closer look at the power unit control panel - the main switchboard from which the power unit is controlled.

Control room structure during development nuclear energy has undergone noticeable changes. By now it looks like this.

The control room equipment consists of one or more information panels, a control panel and operator workstations or consoles. The panels display general information: a mnemonic diagram of the unit, technological parameters, alarms. Some information and main controls are located on the control panel.

The control room room is usually divided into two zones (two circuits): operational zone, which houses information tools and equipment for controlling the main equipment in normal and emergency operating modes, as well as equipment for monitoring security systems, and non-operational zone, in which all controls and means of providing information are concentrated, allowing non-operational personnel who are not operator-technologists to carry out all the necessary actions for the maintenance of software and hardware of the automated control system, without interfering with the operator-technologist managing the unit. In new projects, it is planned to create a third zone - a supervisory circuit, which will make it possible to provide non-operational, “supporting” personnel with information about the operation of the unit and the structure of technical control objects, without interfering with the main operators. An earlier version of the general view and plan of the control room is shown in Fig. 12, perspective in Fig. 13.

Below are the general structures of switchboards and control posts for a power unit with a VVER-1000 reactor.

Rice. 12. General form block control panel and technical equipment layout plan:

1-8 – control and monitoring panels of the reactor compartment, 9-16 – monitoring and control panels of the turbine compartment, 17 – collective use board, 18-19 – safety monitoring and control monitors, 20 – keyboard, 21 – automated workplace SIUR, 22 – controls remote individual control, 23 – security panels, 24 – control monitors, 25 – workstation of the deputy shift manager of the station, 26 – workstation of the SIUT, 27 – workstation of a crisis situation specialist.

Security panels	Mnemonic diagram	Public scoreboard	Workstation of ZNSS and safety specialist, control and management panels based on unit-technological characteristics

The structure of the operational control loops of the main control room is as follows.

The automated SIUR workstation is located in front of the monitoring and control panels that serve the subsystems of automatic control systems, control systems and mimic diagrams with the most important thermal measurements. Directly on the workstation there are remote control controls for the CPS, four color monitors and one safety monitor, alarm acknowledgment buttons for the mnemonic diagram and a collective display, and emergency communication equipment.

The automated workplace of the CIUT has control and remote selective control keyboards, four color monitors and one security monitor, alarm acknowledgment buttons, mnemonic diagrams and public display boards, and emergency communication equipment.

The ZNSS workstation is equipped with information displays and a safety display, and keyboards for displaying information.

The use of a block layout of the main equipment led to the transition to new principles of control of power units. These principles are to create a unified centralized system control of unit units, all elements of which are located on the control panel (control room).

The unit control system includes control, automation, alarm and remote control. The control room also provides communication with workstations and the central control panel. In addition, control and information computing machines are located in the control room, if their installation is provided for by the project.

All elements of the control system are located on operational panels and control panels. The block board also houses the electrical panels of the generator-transformer unit, process protection panels, regulator panels, power panels, central alarm panels and a number of other non-operational panels. The control panels contain remote control keys for valves and electric motors, which allow starting, stopping and normal operation of the unit. The presence of a mnemonic diagram and alarm panels facilitates the work of operating personnel both in normal and emergency conditions. The generator is also switched on in parallel operation from the control room.

According to established practice, control of two units is located in one control room room. This allows you to expand the control area without reducing operational reliability (Fig. 1-3).

It should be noted that at present there is no unified layout of panels and consoles, even for equipment of the same type. This is explained by the search for the most convenient and rational layout of the control and control elements of the unit. In Fig. 1-4 shows the control room plan for 200 MW units. Here, for consoles and operational panels, a closed layout option with a mirror arrangement of the panels of each block is adopted. Nine operational circuit panels are installed on one block: 01 - generator panels, 02 - auxiliary transformer panels, 03-06 - turbine panels, 07-09 - boiler panels. The remaining panels belong to the non-operational circuit.

The use of block control panels made it possible to concentrate all control of the unit in one place, which made the operation of the equipment more efficient, especially in emergency cases. This solution to the issue was ensured by a high level of automation of modern equipment, measuring equipment and remote control. With the introduction of centralized management methods, safe work conditions are improved due to the abolition of permanent workplaces near operating* equipment. Soundproofing control room, good conditions lighting and air conditioning create favorable sanitary conditions for operating personnel.

Some disadvantage of a centralized control system is that the operating personnel are deprived of the opportunity to visually monitor operating equipment, since periodic walk-throughs by duty inspectors cannot replace systematic observation. This problem can be solved by the widespread use of television installations, the cameras of which are located in the most critical places of the block. Having one television screen, the operator can use a special switch to receive an image of any nodes and objects of interest to him. This system is widely used in the USA. Note that in order to ensure a certain visual overview of the equipment, the main control room of 300 MW units has one

T-I 1 m I I □

A glass wall overlooking the machine room.

The use of central control panels does not exclude the use of local control panels installed in the most critical places (feed pumps, deaerators, etc.). All the necessary monitoring and control equipment for one or another element of the unit is installed on these boards.

Local control panels are used during unit startups, as well as to monitor the operation of equipment during walk-throughs.

It is difficult for modern people to imagine life without electricity. We prepare food, use lighting, and use electrical appliances in everyday life: refrigerators, washing machines, microwaves, vacuum cleaners and computers; listening to music, talking on the phone - these are just a few things that are very difficult to do without. All these devices have one thing in common - they use electricity as their “power”. In St. Petersburg and Leningrad region 7 million people live (*according to Rosstat as of January 1, 2016), this number is comparable to the population of the states of Serbia, Bulgaria or Jordan. 7 million people use electricity every day, where does it come from?

Leningrad NPP is largest producer electricity in the North-West, the share of electricity supply for the period from January to October 2016 amounted to 56.63%. During this period, the power plant produced 20 billion 530.74 kW ∙ hours of electricity into the energy system of our region.

LNPP is a sensitive facility and it is not possible for a “random” person to get into it. Having issued Required documents, we visited the main premises of the power plant:

1. Block control panel

2. Reactor room of the power unit

3. Machine room.

Sanitation checkpoint

Having gone through a two-level identity control system, we found ourselves at the sanitary checkpoint.

We are equipped with: safety shoes, a white coat, trousers and a shirt, white socks and a helmet. Passing through the sanitary checkpoint is strictly regulated. Safety is a key corporate value of Rosatom.

An individual dosimeter is required. It is of a cumulative type, leaving the LNPP building we find out what dose of radiation we received during our stay at the power plant. The natural radioactive background that surrounds us ranges from 0.11 to 0.16 μSv/hour.

Filming in the corridors of the Leningrad Nuclear Power Plant is strictly prohibited; only specialists know how to get from room A to room B. Let's move to the first point of the tour.

Block Control Panel

Each power unit is controlled from the block control panel (MCC). The Block Control Panel is a control room in which information about the measured parameters of the power plant operation is collected and processed.

Denis Stukanev, shift supervisor at power unit No. 2 of the Leningrad NPP, talks about the work of the Nuclear Power Plant, the installed equipment, and the “life” of the power plant.

There are 5 unique workplaces in the room: 3 operators, a supervisor and a deputy. shift supervisor. The control room equipment can be divided into 3 blocks responsible for: control of the reactor, turbines and pumps.

If the main parameters deviate beyond the established limits, a sound and light alarm is issued indicating the deviation parameter.

The collection and processing of incoming information is carried out in the SKALA information and measurement system.

Power unit reactor.

Leningrad NPP contains 4 power units. The electric power of each is 1000 MW, the thermal power is 3200 MW. The design output is 28 billion kWh per year.

LNPP is the first station in the country with RBMK-1000 reactors (high power channel reactor). The development of the RBMK was a significant step in the development of nuclear power in the USSR, since such reactors make it possible to create large, high-power nuclear power plants.

Energy conversion in a nuclear power plant unit with RBMK occurs according to a single-circuit scheme. Boiling water from the reactor is passed through separator drums. Then saturated steam (temperature 284 °C) under a pressure of 65 atmospheres is supplied to two turbogenerators with an electric power of 500 MW each. The exhaust steam is condensed, after which circulation pumps supply water to the reactor inlet.

Equipment for routine maintenance of RBMK-100 type reactors. It was used to restore the resource characteristics of the reactor.

One of the advantages of the RBMK reactor is the ability to reload nuclear fuel while the reactor is running without reducing power. A loading and unloading machine is used for reloading. Controlled by the operator remotely. During overload, the radiation situation in the hall does not change significantly. The installation of the machine over the corresponding reactor channel is carried out according to coordinates, and precise guidance is carried out using an optical-television system.

Spent nuclear fuel is loaded into sealed tanks filled with water. The holding time of spent fuel assemblies in pools is 3 years. At the end of this period, the assemblies are disposed of - sending them to spent nuclear fuel storage facilities.

The photographs show the Cherenkov-Vavilov effect, in which a glow occurs caused in a transparent medium by a charged particle that moves at a speed exceeding the phase speed of light in this medium.

This radiation was discovered in 1934 by P.A. Cherenkov and explained in 1937 by I.E. Tamm and I.M. Frank. All three were awarded the Nobel Prize in 1958 for this discovery.

Engine room

One RBMK-1000 reactor supplies steam to two turbines with a capacity of 500 MW each. The turbo unit includes one cylinder low pressure and four high pressure cylinders. The turbine is the most complex unit after the reactor in a nuclear power plant.

The principle of operation of any turbine is similar to the principle of operation of a windmill. In windmills, the air flow rotates the blades and does work. In a turbine, steam rotates blades arranged in a circle on a rotor. The turbine rotor is rigidly connected to the generator rotor, which, when rotated, produces current.

The LNPP turbogenerator consists of a saturated steam turbine type K-500-65 and a synchronous three-phase current generator TVV-500-2 with a speed of 3000 per minute.

In 1979, a team of Kharkov turbine builders was awarded State Prize Ukraine in the field of science and technology.

Leaving LNPP...

The main premises of the Leningrad NPP have been examined, we are again at the sanitary checkpoint. We check ourselves for the presence of radiation sources, everything is clean, we are healthy and happy. While at the Leningrad Nuclear Power Plant, my accumulated radiation dose was 13 μSv, which is comparable to an airplane flight over a distance of 3000 km.

Second life of LNPP

The problem of decommissioning power units is very hot topic, due to the fact that in 2018 the operating life of power unit No. 1 of the Leningrad NPP expires.

Ruslan Kotykov, Deputy Head of the Department for Decommissioning of LNPP Units: “The most acceptable, safest and financially profitable option immediate liquidation. It implies the absence of deferred decisions and delays in observations after the unit is stopped. The experience of decommissioning RBMK reactors will be replicated at other nuclear power plants.”

A few kilometers from the operating Leningrad Nuclear Power Plant, the “construction site of the century” is taking place. Russia is implementing a large-scale program for the development of nuclear energy, which involves increasing the share of nuclear energy from 16% to 25-30% by 2020. To replace the capacity of the Leningrad NPP being decommissioned, a new generation nuclear power plant with a VVER-1200 type reactor (water-water power reactor) of the AES-2006 project is being created. "AES-2006" is standard project Russian nuclear power plant of a new generation “3+” with improved technical and economic indicators. The goal of the project is to achieve modern safety and reliability indicators with optimized capital investments for the construction of the station.

Nikolai Kashin, head of the information and public relations department of power units under construction, spoke about created project LNPP-2. This project meets modern international requirements on safety.

The electrical capacity of each power unit is 1198.8 MW, heating capacity is 250 Gcal/h.

The estimated service life of LNPP-2 is 50 years, the main equipment is 60 years.

The main feature of the project being implemented is the use of additional passive safety systems in combination with active traditional systems. Provides protection against earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, and plane crashes. Examples of improvements include the double containment of the reactor hall; a “trap” for the core melt, located under the reactor vessel; passive residual heat removal system.

I remember the words of Vladimir Pereguda, director of Leningrad NPP: “The design of power units with VVER-1200 reactors has unprecedented multi-level safety systems, including passive ones (which do not require personnel intervention and power supply), as well as protection from external influences.”

On construction site Installation of equipment continues for new power units of the Leningrad NPP pumping station consumers of the turbine building, three housings of circulation pump units were installed and concreted. Pumping units are the main technological equipment object and consist of two parts - pumps and electric motors.

The power supply to the power system from power unit No. 1 of LNPP-2 will be carried out through a complete gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) at 330 kV, from power unit No. 2 of LNPP-2 it is expected for voltages of 330 and 750 kV.

The Kola Nuclear Power Plant is the northernmost nuclear power plant in Europe and the first nuclear power plant in the USSR built beyond the Arctic Circle. Despite the harsh climate of the region and the long polar night, the water near the station never freezes. The nuclear power plant does not affect the state of the environment, this is evidenced by the fact that in the area of ​​the outlet canal there is a fish farm where trout are bred all year round.

1. The history of the Kola Nuclear Power Plant began in the mid-1960s: residents of the union continued to actively develop the northern part of the territories, and the rapid development of industry required large energy costs. The country's leadership decided to build nuclear power plant in the Arctic, and in 1969 the builders laid the first cubic meter of concrete.

In 1973, the first power unit of the Kola Nuclear Power Plant was launched, and in 1984 the last, the fourth power unit, was put into operation.

2. The station is located above the Arctic Circle on the shore of Lake Imandra, twelve kilometers from the city of Polyarnye Zori, Murmansk region.

It consists of four VVER-440 power units with an installed capacity of 1,760 MW and provides electricity to a number of enterprises in the region.

The Kola Nuclear Power Plant generates 60% of the electricity in the Murmansk region, and in its area of ​​responsibility big cities, including Murmansk, Apatity, Monchegorsk, Olenegorsk and Kandalaksha.

3. Reactor protective cap No. 1. Deep below it is the nuclear reactor vessel, which is a cylindrical vessel.

21. More than two thousand people work at KNPP. For stable operation station staff constantly monitors its technical condition.

22. The length of the machine room is 520 meters.

23. The pipeline system of the Kola Nuclear Power Plant stretches for kilometers throughout the entire territory of the power plant.

24. With the help of transformers, the electricity generated by the generator enters the network. And the steam exhausted in the turbine condensers becomes water again.

25. Open switchgear. It is from here that the electricity generated by the station goes to the consumer.

26.

27. The station was built off the shores of Imandra, the largest lake in the Murmansk region and one of the largest lakes in Russia. The territory of the reservoir is 876 km², depth is 100 m.

28. Chemical water treatment area. After processing, chemically desalted water is obtained here, which is necessary for the operation of power units.

29. Laboratory. Specialists of the chemical workshop of the Kola NPP ensure that the water chemistry regime at the station meets the plant operating standards.

30.

31.

32. The Kola Nuclear Power Plant has its own The educational center and a full-scale simulator, which are designed for training and advanced training of station personnel.

33. Students are supervised by an instructor who teaches them how to interact with the control system and what to do in the event of a malfunction of the station.

34. These containers store non-radioactive salt melt, which is the final product of liquid waste processing.

35. The technology for managing liquid radioactive waste from the Kola NPP is unique and has no analogues in the country. It allows reducing the amount of radioactive waste that must be disposed of by 50 times.

36. Operators of the liquid radioactive waste processing complex monitor all stages of processing. The entire process is fully automated.

37. Reset cleared Wastewater into the outlet channel leading to the Imandra reservoir.

39. On average, the water temperature at the mouth of the outlet canal is five degrees higher than the water intake temperature.

40. In the area of ​​the KNPP diversion channel, Lake Imandra does not freeze even in winter.

41. For industrial environmental supervision at the Kola NPP they use automated system monitoring of radiation conditions (ASKRO).

42. The mobile radiometric laboratory, which is part of ASKRO, makes it possible to conduct gamma surveys of the area along designated routes, take air and water samples using samplers, determine the content of radionuclides in the samples and transmit the received information to the ASRO information and analytical center via radio channel.

43. Collection of atmospheric precipitation, sampling of soil, snow cover and grass are carried out at 15 permanent observation points.

44. The Kola Nuclear Power Plant also has other projects. For example, a fishery complex in the area of ​​a nuclear power plant discharge canal.
