In-Service Calibration Of Temperature Measurement Devices Using Plant Monitoring System Data

View page
US Patent:
7739067, Jun 15, 2010
Filed:
Aug 6, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/834302
Inventors:
Brent D. Shumaker - Knoxville TN, US
Hashem M. Hashemian - Knoxville TN, US
Gregory W. Morton - Knoxville TN, US
Assignee:
Analysis and Measurement Services Corporation - Knoxville TN
International Classification:
G01K 15/00
US Classification:
702 99
Abstract:
System for automating the determination of cross calibration coefficients based on data stored by a plant computer and data storage unit or a plant monitoring system. The automated system includes a processor executing software for retrieving data, determining average temperatures, determining deviations, and determining new calibration curve coefficients for deviating instruments. In another embodiment, the processor executes software for loading the historical data, selecting data points, removing deviate data, analyzing the data, reporting the data, and for recalibrating instruments that were determined to be deviating.

Advanced Digital Control Rod Position Indication System With Rod Drop Monitoring For Nuclear Power Plants

View page
US Patent:
8351561, Jan 8, 2013
Filed:
Jan 9, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/351753
Inventors:
Hashem M. Hashemian - Knoxville TN, US
Gregory W. Morton - Knoxville TN, US
Brent D. Shumaker - Knoxville TN, US
Danny D. Beverly - Knoxville TN, US
Casey D. Sexton - Knoxville TN, US
Assignee:
Analysis and Measurement Services Corporation - Knoxville TN
International Classification:
G21C 17/00
US Classification:
376258, 376259, 376245
Abstract:
An advanced digital rod position indication (ADRPI) system having rod drop monitoring capability. When a reactor trip occurs, the ADRPI system derives the rod drop time from the signals induced in the detector coils by the falling drive rods. The ADRPI system is linked to the reactor trip breaker to provide a reference point to allow accurate timing of the rod drop times.

US Patent:
20130177123, Jul 11, 2013
Filed:
Dec 7, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/707783
Inventors:
Analysis and Measurement Services Corporation - Knoxville TN, US
Danny D. Beverly - Knoxville TN, US
Gregory W. Morton - Knoxville TN, US
Hashem M. Hashemian - Knoxville TN, US
Brent D. Shumaker - Knoxville TN, US
Assignee:
Analysis and Measurement Services Corporation - Knoxville TN
International Classification:
G21C 17/00
US Classification:
376258
Abstract:
Systems and methods of monitoring position information of a control rod in a nuclear reactor, including detecting an output signal induced by movement of a control rod with respect to at least one detection coil of the control rod, the output signal having identifiable characteristics representative of a plurality of positions of the control rod within the at least one detection coil, and processing the identifiable characteristics to derive the positions of the control rod within the at least one detection coil.

US Patent:
20170352440, Dec 7, 2017
Filed:
Jun 16, 2017
Appl. No.:
15/625005
Inventors:
- Knoxville TN, US
Hashem M. Hashemian - Knoxville TN, US
Brent D. Shumaker - Knoxville TN, US
Assignee:
Analysis and Measurement Services Corporation - Knoxville TN
International Classification:
G21C 17/00
Abstract:
An automated system for on-line monitoring and coil diagnostics of rod position indicator (RPI) coils coil diagnostic, or RPI coil diagnostic system. The RPI coil diagnostic system performs coil diagnostics for a RPI system in a nuclear power plant. The RPI coil diagnostic system is in electrical communication with and monitors the outputs of the detector coils. The RPI coil diagnostic system measures characteristics of the detector coils that are indicative of the health of the detector coils and/or the connections between the detector coils and the RPI electronics.

High Resolution Digital Rod Position Indication System For Nuclear Power Plants

View page
US Patent:
20140321593, Oct 30, 2014
Filed:
Jan 9, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/351745
Inventors:
Gregory M. Morton - Knoxville TN, US
Hashem M. Hashemian - Knoxville TN, US
Brent D. Shumaker - Knoxville TN, US
Danny D. Beverly - Knoxville TN, US
Casey D. Sexton - Knoxville TN, US
Assignee:
Analysis and Measurement Services Corporation - Knoxville TN
International Classification:
G21C 17/12
US Classification:
376258
Abstract:
A high resolution digital rod position indication (high resolution DRPI) system having improved resolution. The high resolution DRPI system monitors the rod control cluster and provides an indication of the rod position with precision to a single step. In addition, the high resolution DRPI system is capable of producing a rod position output compatible with existing rod control systems. The improved resolution of the high resolution DRPI system allows the actual position of the control rods to be continuously monitored and eliminates the need for or reduces the frequency of offline re-initialization of the step counters.
