For this purpose, a design basis accident (DBA) associated with SDS1 regulatory standards is applied to the HIL simulation environment and compared with simulated expected plant operation. SDS1 evaluation is performed with focus on steam generator (SG) level low trip scenarios. A sample application (primary shutdown system (SDS1)) is implemented and evaluated. Event timings within the control loop are thoroughly investigated and an acceptable method for HIL platform communication is developed. Communication between the simulator and external hardware is supported by a National Instruments (NI) data acquisition system (DAQ) and a customized virtual instrument (VI). An Invensys Triconex Tricon v9 safety PLC is interfaced to a nuclear power plant (NPP) simulation suite, replicating the operation of Darlington NPP. The design, development and validation of a hardware-in- the-loop ( HIL) simulation platform are presented. of Electrical and Computer Engineering, London, Ontario (Canada) of Western Ontario, Control and Instrumentation (CIES) Research Group, Dept.
