The essence of development. Purpose and scope 

Use of three control circuits for power changes in a nuclear power unit with ВВЕР-1000 type reactor that maintain simultaneously the routine power changes of the power unit, value required of axial offset and temperature conditions of the coolant.   

The main advantages 

Safe and efficient control of any power changes for a nuclear power unit with ВВЕР-1000 type reactor, under normal operating conditions. Improvement of stability of power density for a BBEP-1000 type reactor upon manoeuvering its power, under normal operating conditions.

The degree of readiness. Protection of intellectual property 

The R&D product is ready to be introduced by ENERGOATOM National Nuclear Power Generating Company.
