Remote monitoring of nuclear power plants in Baden-Wuerttemberg – From measurement to emergency protection
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 April 2013
Abstract
The nuclear reactor remote monitoring system of the federal state of Baden- Wuerttemberg (KFUe BW) is realized according to the renewed “recommendations for remote monitoring of nuclear power plants” (BMU, 2005a). The spectrum of the system covers both, pursuit of operational procedures, and incidents or accidents. The KFUe BW provides a measurement network and information system for operational parameters at the plant sites as well as radiological and meteorological measurements in their vicinity. For the Ministry, it preferentially serves as an instrument of nuclear supervision. This paper gives a brief survey of the system architecture and concentrates on the role of the KFUe with respect to the determination and evaluation of the radiological situation in the range of off-site emergency management.
