Project : Create a PWR simulator

[cumulocirrus]

I'm a french junior engineer in nuclear industry. Since few weeks, I'm thinking about develloping a little PWR simulator.

In a first time, the goal would be to create a program with graphical interface to simulate the process, the regulations and the manual control for a very simplified plant. The level of detail is to be defined.

The code used to create this simulator is to defined.

I have good skill in modelisation of process (core, heat transfer), and I can have all the required datas (regulation schemes, mechanical and thermal characteristics,...) for a 900 MW 3-loop type pwr power plant.

I'm looking for people who have skill in programing, graphical interface and nuclear simulation or all other ability related with this project.

If you are interested in this project, you can contact me by PM

Sounds cool, maybe something like http://esa21.kennesaw.edu/activities/nukeenergy/nuke.htm" but with more detail and technical accuracy?

Hi there! Your project sounds really interesting. I am not an engineer or programmer, but I do have some experience with nuclear energy and simulations. I think it's great that you are taking the initiative to develop a PWR simulator, especially with a focus on the regulations and manual control.

Since you mentioned that the level of detail is still to be defined, have you considered reaching out to professionals in the nuclear industry for their input? They may have valuable insights and suggestions on what aspects of the plant should be included in the simulation.

As for the code used to create the simulator, have you thought about using a programming language like Python or Java? Both have libraries and frameworks that could be useful for your project.

I hope you find the right people to collaborate with on this project. Good luck!
