Tham khảo tài liệu 'nuclear power system simulations and operation part 3', kỹ thuật - công nghệ, cơ khí - chế tạo máy phục vụ nhu cầu học tập, nghiên cứu và làm việc hiệu quả | Simulation and Simulators for Nuclear Power Generation 19 Numerical analysis was very different when the maximal calculating capacity was represented by desktop calculators first mechanical and after a while electrical. Methods of Runge-Kutta Fowler-Warten Hindmarsch-Gear were studied and used widely together with the flourishing predictor-corrector multistep methods. Everybody had his her favorite numerical integrating algorithm and praised it to the others. Nevertheless even that time and ever since simulation is a great way of learning Observing a natural phenomenon we gain an imagination how it works and try to build a model selecting the most dominant processes of it. Using powerful computers in a proper way we can learn whether our imagination was good or wrong or just not enough something is still missing. Finally if the results of simulation are really very close very similar to the real behavior of the studied phenomenon we get the unforgettable feeling we are able to understand and describe what Mother Nature had been doing and how Back to the nuclear industry it is obvious that power generating nuclear power plants cannot be used as test facilities to check out different new ideas. Some people do not like even the doctors practicing - they should not practice they should already know what they are doing before treating a patient. As matter of fact simulation is taking all over - working on models is much safer and much cheaper than doing anything else. The practice of modeling nuclear power plants show that the up-to-date and state-of-art modeling techniques are fully adequate to support all tasks of design licensing construction and operation of nuclear power generating plants or other nuclear facilities. Even the cause and the circumstances of different accidents can be determined the best and easiest way by simulation studies. Simulation is widely used by students of the universities by design institutes and companies by the authorities by research .
