Abstract

In nuclear power plants (NPPs), an intelligent decision support system (IDSS) aids the decision-making process of main control room operators. It achieves this by monitoring and diagnosing conditions, predicting progress, and providing preventive advice during both normal and abnormal operations. Despite ongoing research in Korea, few IDSS for NPPs have been effectively applied and verified. Furthermore, established designs and validation guidelines for IDSSs for Korean NPPs remain lacking. To address this gap, this study systematically identifies problems and corresponding countermeasures for applying artificial intelligence-based design and validation technologies, while complying with licensing regulatory standards. The aim is to develop a practical and effective IDSS. This study identifies design challenges in the practical application of fundamental IDSS technology, outlining necessary design and validation technologies. Additionally, it suggests technology-specific response plans for the identified design challenges.

正常和异常情况下韩国核电站智能决策支持系统的设计挑战和应对计划

在核电站（NPPs）中，智能决策支持系统（IDSS）可辅助主控室操作员的决策过程。它通过监测和诊断条件、预测进展以及在正常和异常运行期间提供预防性建议来实现这一目标。尽管韩国正在开展相关研究，但有效应用和验证核电站决策支持系统的国家还很少。此外，韩国核电厂 IDSS 的既定设计和验证准则仍然缺乏。为了弥补这一不足，本研究系统地找出了在应用基于人工智能的设计和验证技术时存在的问题和相应对策，同时遵守许可监管标准。目的是开发实用有效的 IDSS。本研究确定了 IDSS 基本技术实际应用中的设计挑战，概述了必要的设计和验证技术。此外，它还针对已确定的设计挑战提出了特定技术的应对计划。

期刊介绍： Progress in Nuclear Energy is an international review journal covering all aspects of nuclear science and engineering. In keeping with the maturity of nuclear power, articles on safety, siting and environmental problems are encouraged, as are those associated with economics and fuel management. However, basic physics and engineering will remain an important aspect of the editorial policy. Articles published are either of a review nature or present new material in more depth. They are aimed at researchers and technically-oriented managers working in the nuclear energy field. Please note the following: 1) PNE seeks high quality research papers which are medium to long in length. Short research papers should be submitted to the journal Annals in Nuclear Energy. 2) PNE reserves the right to reject papers which are based solely on routine application of computer codes used to produce reactor designs or explain existing reactor phenomena. Such papers, although worthy, are best left as laboratory reports whereas Progress in Nuclear Energy seeks papers of originality, which are archival in nature, in the fields of mathematical and experimental nuclear technology, including fission, fusion (blanket physics, radiation damage), safety, materials aspects, economics, etc. 3) Review papers, which may occasionally be invited, are particularly sought by the journal in these fields.
