Digital Instrumentation and Control Systems in Nuclear Power Plants
Author: Committee on Application of Digital Instrumentation and Control Systems to Nuclear Power Plant Operations and Safety
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 030952444X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 127
Book Description
The nuclear industry and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) have been working for several years on the development of an adequate process to guide the replacement of aging analog monitoring and control instrumentation in nuclear power plants with modern digital instrumentation without introducing off-setting safety problems. This book identifies criteria for the USNRC's review and acceptance of digital applications in nuclear power plants. It focuses on eight areas: software quality assurance, common-mode software failure potential, systems aspects of digital instrumentation and control technology, human factors and human-machine interfaces, safety and reliability assessment methods, dedication of commercial off-the-shelf hardware and software, the case-by-case licensing process, and the adequacy of technical infrastructure.

Nuclear Auditing Handbook
Author: Charles H. Moseley
Publisher: Quality Press
ISBN: 1636940080
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 393
Book Description
Initially developed as a tool for training lead auditors of nuclear quality systems, the Nuclear Auditing Handbook has also been used as a reference by quality managers who plan quality system audits. It provides detailed material in such aspects as the development, administration, planning, preparation, performance, and reporting of quality system audits in energy-related fields. ASQ's Nuclear Committee of the Energy and Environment Division gathered a team of highly seasoned experts in the nuclear auditing field to expand this new edition's content and bring it current to modern-day best practices and standards. This book introduces updated information about requirements and standards, including the 2019 editions of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) NQA-1 Quality Assurance Program Requirements for Nuclear Facility Applications and ASME BPVC Sections I; IV; and VIII, Divisions 1 and 2. The authors and editors have also added helpful tools to aid nuclear auditors, including case studies suitable for training auditors, blank forms for convenient use, and samples of completed forms.
