OSTI ID:7143475
The High Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor Steam Cycle/Cogeneration (HTGR-SC/C) plant is uniquely designed to supply up to five million pounds per hour of process steam at 650 psig (4.5 MPa) and 100/sup 0/F (56/sup 0/C) of superheat and to provide up to 820 MW of net electricity to the utility grid. A state-of-the-art distributed microprocessor control system, used to vary the plant output to meet demands for both process steam and electric generation, is the first system of this type to be designed for use in a nuclear power plant. This structure allows local direct digital control as well as centralized supervisory control, resulting in a modern control room based on computer-driven displays and optimized man-machine interfaces.
