Abstract
The organizational performance of main control room (MCR) operators is crucial in digital nuclear power plants (NPPs). A comprehensive study determined the weights of performance-shaping factors (PSFs) influencing operators’ organizational performance. Firstly, a questionnaire survey was conducted, and an interval judgment matrix was innovatively established based on the expectation and standard deviation of statistical data acquired. Next, interval hierarchical analysis (IHA) was employed to derive reasonable intervals for each PSF weight. Finally, a hierarchical interval weighting optimization mathematical model was established for high-precision weighting calculation. This method offers a significant reference for optimizing the PSF weighting process. The approach presented in this paper is highly adaptable and provides new technical and theoretical support for the study of weighting theory.
期刊介绍:
Annals of Nuclear Energy provides an international medium for the communication of original research, ideas and developments in all areas of the field of nuclear energy science and technology. Its scope embraces nuclear fuel reserves, fuel cycles and cost, materials, processing, system and component technology (fission only), design and optimization, direct conversion of nuclear energy sources, environmental control, reactor physics, heat transfer and fluid dynamics, structural analysis, fuel management, future developments, nuclear fuel and safety, nuclear aerosol, neutron physics, computer technology (both software and hardware), risk assessment, radioactive waste disposal and reactor thermal hydraulics. Papers submitted to Annals need to demonstrate a clear link to nuclear power generation/nuclear engineering. Papers which deal with pure nuclear physics, pure health physics, imaging, or attenuation and shielding properties of concretes and various geological materials are not within the scope of the journal. Also, papers that deal with policy or economics are not within the scope of the journal.
