Abstract

Our project titled "ANALYSIS ON NORMAL SERVICE WATER SYSYTEM PARAMETERS MONITORING AND CONTROL THE VARIOUS PARAMETER THROUGH PLC" pays attention on how Normal Service Water System(NSWS) works based on present control logic, its importance, operation, advantages, limitations. Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR) is the second stage reactor of Indian Nuclear system. Heat loads generated in the plant is cooled by various water systems based on safety aspects. Normal service water system is used to remove the heat loads from Turbo generator equipment, Generator transformer coolers, chiller units, Air compressors and Nitrogen plant by using Demineralized water (DM). Normal service water(i.e.) DM water is cooled by sea water through heat exchangers. NSWS is controlled through Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). Our project in this system is to control expansion tank level, changing the flow of water through stand by pump, when winding temperature increases beyond the limit and finding efficiency of controller using Particle Swarm Optimization and Firefly Algorithm. Here all the task of operations are performed with the SIEMENS PLC.
