Abstract

The design process and features of new CANDU (Canadian Deuterium Uranium) control centres are discussed. The design process incorporates the systematic consideration of human factors (HF) issues as part of the overall systems engineering activity. This design process has been based on international standards for control center design. CANDU control centers have evolved through three generations of designs with the current advanced designs representing the fourth generation. CANDU plants have always incorporated digital technologies. Video display units (VDUs) have been present in CANDU control centers since the late 1960s. Advanced designs, such as the CANDU 3, make use of a distributed control system feeding data to a plant-wide LAN. The operator interface system is based on a set of nodes on the plant-wide LAN which then feed various VDUs in the control centers. Large-scale wall displays are also used to present operators with a plant overview. Details of the HF aspects of the control center design process and the CANDU 3 control room are discussed.<>

新型CANDU控制中心的人机界面设计

介绍了新型加拿大氘铀控制中心的设计过程和特点。设计过程将系统地考虑人为因素(HF)问题作为整个系统工程活动的一部分。本设计过程参照国际控制中心设计标准。CANDU控制中心已经发展了三代设计，目前的先进设计代表了第四代。CANDU工厂一直采用数字技术。自20世纪60年代末以来，视频显示单元(vdu)已经出现在CANDU控制中心。先进的设计，如CANDU 3，利用分布式控制系统将数据馈送到工厂范围的局域网。操作员界面系统基于全厂LAN上的一组节点，然后向控制中心的各种vdu提供信息。大型墙壁显示器也用于向操作员展示工厂概况。详细讨论了高频方面的控制中心设计过程和CANDU 3型控制室。
