Abstract

In this paper we describe a Control Rod Control System(CRCS) with the various functions for the test and operation of Control Rod Drive Mechanism(CRDM). The CRCS controls the motion of the full length rod drive mechanisms in response to signals from the Reactor Operator and the Reactor Regulating System. The mechanisms are grouped and identified as being for either Shutdown Banks or Control Banks. The CRCS also provides information regarding rod motion, rod position, and status of the Rod Control System. Also we have implemented the diverse functions in the developed CRCS. Due to the developed CRCS, we are assured that the commercial operation by this system be made before long.
