Nonlinear Control of Neutron Flux Density of the Nuclear Reactor

According to the nonlinear dynamic model of a nuclear reactor, a new constant neutron flux density control method based on nonlinear state feedback is presented. This new method has high accuracy and fits in wide time domain in contrast to the classical control methods because of no approximation of the reactor model. The nonlinear control law is not too complicated. The simulation results verify the effectiveness and the advantage of the presented control law.
