With the tightening supplies of energy and deterioration ofenvironment pollution in the globe the reliability cleanli-ness and security help the nuclear technology gain increasingtraction The majority of marine nuclear power plants adoptintegrated design Since vessels request strong mobility andoperational condition changes dramatically the nuclear reac-tor and system device need to accommodate themselves tothe radical load changing The nuclear reactor power controldominates the whole system of nuclear power plant anddecides the security and reliability of the global deviceHencethe operation control strategy and controller design shouldaccord with its particularities which is convenient for powercontrolling and adjusting and ensures the steady operationThe reactor is a time delay system that is similar to otherindustrial systemsThe time delay effect influences the systemperformance which possibly brings oscillation and evendestroys the instability [1 2] Thus it is practically significantto research the time delay control of nuclear reactor

2 Mathematical Problems in Engineering

As a mature controller with strong availability PID andthe controllers have been applied in industrial processes forsophisticated dynamic systems which have large scale Theprimary reason is its relatively simple structure that couldbe easily comprehended and implemented [13ndash15] In recentyears considerable interests in time delay have been arousedin fractional-order PID controller andmany researchers havepresented beneficial methods to design stabilizing fractional-order PID (FOPID) controllers for varying time delay system[16ndash19] This paper adopts neural network (NN) to tunethe FOPID online to control the nuclear reactor powerwhich keeps the coolant average temperature constant onthe condition of load changing NN is an effective methodfor PID parameters tuning and the wavelet neural network(WNN) improves the efficiency of NN by transformingthe nonlinear excitation function to the wavelet functionHowever WNN still follows the gradient descent methodto adjust weights which inevitably causes the problemsof deficient generalization performance ill-posedness andoverfitting Motivated by the drawback above it should takeadvantage of the algorithm core LMS to improve WNNBoth LMS and KLMS are derived from mean squared errorcost function [20ndash22] LMS algorithm is famous for its easycomprehending and implementing but has no ability tobe utilized in nonlinear domain With the wide spread ofkernel theory the novel LMS algorithm with kernel trick hasdrawn considerable attention to learning machines includingneural network [23ndash26] Recently kernel functions (suchas Gaussian kernel) are applied in support vector machine(SVM) mostly which projects the linear nonseparable datato another space for being separable in the new space RBFnetwork is a sort of NNwhich useGaussian kernel frequentlyBut this kernel could not approach the target appropriatelywhen it encounters more complex signal in the calculationprocess There are some literatures indicating that Gaussiankernel in RBF network and SVM could not generate a set ofcomplete bases in the subspace ideally by translation [27]Some potential wavelet functions could be transformed askernel functions which are competitive to produce a set ofcomplete bases in 119871

2(119877) space (square and integrable space)

by stretching and translatingMeanwhile RBF network needsto identify the model of object and obtain the Jacobianinformation when it tunes the network weights and it ishard to gain the Jacobian information of complex industrialsystem But the conventional WNN could tune the PIDcontroller without such information and is more appropriateto be the parent body for improvement Thus this paperproposes a novel neural network based on wavelet kernelfunction and combines with fuzzy logic rules to achieve theonline tuning of FOPID Experiment results validate that thecontrol strategy and controller design improve the accuracyand speed which could control the nuclear reactor poweroperation and enhances the overall efficiency

The next content is composed of six sections Section 2provides a short introduction to LMS algorithm and kernelLMS algorithm Section 3 presents the related theory ofwavelet kernel function and proposes the method of waveletkernel neural network including the discussion of adaptiveparameters The model of nuclear reactor is structured by

RELAP 5 program in Section 4 Then the control strategyand the fractional-order PID controller are designed withfuzzy logic and wavelet kernel neural network in Section 5In Section 6 experiments illustrate the effectiveness of thewavelet kernel neural network and the fractional-order PIDcontroller As some controllers are faced with the problemof losing efficacy in practice Section 6 also emulates andanalyzes the control process in the basis of reactor modelFinally conclusion of this paper has been described inSection 7

2 The Description of Kernel LMS Algorithm

In this section the algorithm of kernel LMS is introduced as ashow review for wavelet kernel neural network Kernel LMSis an approach to perform the LMS algorithm in the kernelfeature space In the LMS algorithm the hypothesis space1198671is composed by all the linear operators on 119880 (mapping

119908 119880 rarr 119877) [28] which is embedded in a Hilbert spaceand the linear operator represents standard inner productThe LMS algorithm minimizes the total instantaneous errorof the system output

119864 (119899) =1

2sum e2 (119899) (1)

where e(119899) = norm(119899) minus x(119899)w(119899) norm is the desired valuew(119899) is the weight vector x(119899) is the input vector and 119899 is theinstant Using the straightforward stochastic gradient descentupdate rule the weight vector w is approximated based oninput vector x

w (119899 + 1) = w (119899) + 120578e (119899) x (119899) (2)

where 120578 is the step-size By training step by step the weightwis updated as a linear combination of the previous and presentinput vector

This LMS algorithm learns linear patterns satisfactorilywhile it could not approach the same sound effect in non-linear pattern Motivated by the drawback Pokharel withother scholars extended the LMS algorithm to RKHS by thekernel trick [28 29] Kernel methods map the input into ahigh dimensional space (HDS) [30] And any kernel functionbased on Mercerrsquos theorem has the follow mapping [31]

119896 (119909 1199091015840

) = ⟨120601 (119909) 120601 (1199091015840

)⟩ = 120601119879

(119909) 120601 (1199091015840

) (3)

When the input in (2) consists of 120601(x(1)) 120601(x(2)) 120601(x(119899)) but not x(1) x(2) x(119899) 120601(x(119899)) is the infinitefeature vector transformed from input vector x(119899) The LMSalgorithm is no longer applicable and the total instantaneouserror of the system output is as follows

119864 =1

2sum(norm minus 120601 (x (119899))w (119899))2 (4)

where 120601(x(119899)) is matrixes of input vector norm is desiredvalue vector and w(119899) is weight vector in RKHS

Then build the hypothesis that w(0) = 0 for convenienceand (2) could convert to

w (119899) = 120578119899minus1

sum

119894=0

e (119894) 120601 (x (119894)) (5)

and the final output in 119899 step updating of the learningalgorithm is

z (119899) = 120578119899minus1

sum

119894=0

e (119894) ⟨120601 (x (119894)) 120601 (x (119899))⟩ = 120578e119879 (119899 minus 1) k (6)

and k = [119896(x(1) x(119899)) 119896(x(2) x(119899)) 119896(x(119899 minus 1) x(119899))]From (4)ndash(6) the KLMS algorithm remedies the defectof the LMS algorithm of its relatively small dimensionalinput space and improves the well-posedness study in theinfinite dimensional space with finite training data [28] Asthe application of adaptive filter theory the neural networkcould take advantage of the KLMS algorithm which endowsthe learning of neural network with more efficiency andreliability

3 Wavelet Kernel Neural Network

Following the principle above this paper acquires the waveletkernel function by Mercer theorem and proposes a morecompetent method to update parameters on basis of con-ventional WNN With the kernel LMS above the waveletkernel neural network is proposed in this section on the basisof wavelet kernel function and conventional wavelet neuralnetwork First the wavelet kernel function is constructedwhich is admissible neural network kernel Second thewavelet kernel neural network is proposed including neuronexplanation and weight updating Then the modulationsof adaptive variable step-size and wavelet kernel width arediscussed in Sections 33 and 34

where (119908) is the Fourier transform of 120595(119909) For a commonmultidimensional wavelet function if the wavelet function ofone dimension is 120595(119909) which satisfies the condition (8) theproduct of one-dimensional (1D) wavelet functions could bedescribed by tensor theory [29 31]

The conception above is the foundation of wavelet anal-ysis and theory Note that the wavelet kernel function forneural network is a special kernel function and comes fromwavelet theory it would be the horizontal function 119896(119909 1199091015840) =119896(119909 minus 119909

) and satisfied the condition of Mercer theorem [34]which could be summarized as follows

Lemma 1 A continuous symmetric kernel is 119896(119909 1199091015840) and 119909is bounded likewise for 1199091015840 Then 119896(119909 1199091015840) is the valid kernelfunction for wavelet neural network if and only if it holds forany nonzero function ℎ(119909)which makes int

With regard to the horizontal floating function thereis an analogous theory for support vector machine (SVM)[35] Allowing for the affiliation between SVM and NN [34]an approved horizontal floating kernel function of SVM iseffective in NN When 120595(119909) is a mother wavelet 119886 is adilation factor and 119887 is a translation factor 119909 119886 isin 119877the horizontal floating translation-invariant wavelet kernelscould be expressed as [36]

Since the number of wavelet kernel functions whichsatisfy the horizontal floating function condition [37] is notmuch up to now the neural network in this paper adopts anexistent wavelet kernel function Morlet wavelet function

33 The Updating of Adaptive Variable Step According tothe algorithm presented above (see Section 2) it stresses thatthe adaptive variable step could be regarded as a significantcoefficient with the ability to influence the adaptivity andeffectivity of the algorithm The stability and convergenceof the algorithm are influenced by step-size parameter andthe choice of this parameter reflects a compromise betweenthe dual requirements of rapid convergence and small mis-adjustment A large prediction error would cause the step-size to increase to provide faster tracking while a smallprediction error will result in a decrease in the step-sizeto yield smaller misadjustment [37] Therefore this paperimproves the NLMS algorithm derived from LMS algorithmwhich is propitious to multidimensional nonlinear structureand avoids the limitation of linear structure

NLMS focuses on the main problem of LMS algorithmrsquosconstant step-size which designs an adaptive step-size toavoid instability and picks the convergence speedup

where 1⟨119906(119899) 119906(119899)⟩ is regarded as the variable step-sizecompared with the LMS algorithm But the NLMS has littleability to perform in the nonlinear space By the kernel trickthe kernel function could not only improve thewavelet neuralnetwork but also update the step-size of neural networkself-adaptively As what (17) reveals z

119870is a consequence

of nonlinear function 119891(sdot) Since 119891(sdot) is continuously dif-ferentiable this function could be matched by innumerablelinear function following the principle of the definition ofdifferential calculus

Theorem 2 The weights updating satisfies the NLMS condi-tion in the linear integrable space 1198711(119877) as follows

119908 (119899 + 1) = 119908 (119899) + 120578 (119899) times 119890 (119899) times 119906 (119899) (23)

where 120578(119899) = 1⟨119906(119899) 119906(119899)⟩ is the adaptive variable step-sizeThen weights are expanded to 119870 dimension matrix w

119870(119899)+120574(119899) exists which has the relationship that

Equations (27) and (28) reveal that the 120578119870(119899) is indepen-

dent of the linear function intercept 120574(119899) and only relatesto the input and slope 120581

119896(119899) Motivated by the drawback of

slight error 120576 from 119865(119899) minus 119891(119899) the 1205812119896(119899) in (28) is replaced

by 1198911015840(w119870(119899) times u

119870(119899)) which improves the accuracy and

completes the proof

On the basis of the discussion above (22) could berepresented as a special situation by Theorem 2 when theslope of function 119891(sdot) is 1 Theorem 2 expands the NLMS tothe multidimensional nonlinear space from the linear spaceand broadens the application of NLMS Compared with thevariable step-size in (22) (27) and (28) could be defined as theadaptive variable step-size of NLMS in the extended space

When ⟨u119870(119899) u119870(119899)⟩ is too small the problem caused by

numerical calculation has to be considered To overcome thisdifficulty (28) is altered to

4 The Model Design of IPWR

In order to reduce the volume of the pressure vessel theintegration reactor generally uses compactOTSG Since thereis no separator in the steam generator the superheated steamproduced by OTSG could improve the thermal efficiencyof the secondary loop systems Compared with naturalcirculation steam generator U-tube the OTSG is designedwith simpler structure but less water volume in heat transfertube Since it is difficult to measure the water level in OTSGespecially during variable load operation the OTSG needsa high-efficiency control system to ensure safe operationPrimary coolant average temperature is an important param-eter to ensure steam generator heat exchange The controlscheme with a constant average temperature of the coolantcan achieve accurate control of the reactor power and avoidgeneration of large volume coolant loop changes

5 The Control Strategy andFOPID Controller Design

New control law is demanded in nuclear device [39] Whenthe nuclear power plant operates stably on different con-ditions the variation of main parameters in primary andsecondary side is indeterminate The operation strategyemploys the coolant average temperature 119879av to be constantwith load changing The WKNN fuzzy fractional-order PIDsystem achieves coolant average temperature invariability bycontrolling reactor power system (Figure 4)

The five parameters including three coefficients andtwo exponents are acquired in two formsmdashfuzzy logic andwavelet kernel neural network The idea of this methodcombination is born from the fact that the power level ofnuclear reactor tends to alter dramatically in a short while andthen maintain slight variation within a certain period Dueto the boundedness of the WKNN excitation function theoutput range of FOPIDcoefficients could not bewide enoughThe initial parameters of FOPID are set byWKNN and fuzzylogic Moreover the exponents of FOPID have no need tovary with the small changing As a consequence the fuzzylogic rule is executed when the reactor power transformsremarkably to tune the five parameters of FOPID and theWKNN retains updating and tuning of the coefficients basedon the fuzzy logic all the while The process is illustrated inFigure 5

Based on theoretical analysis and design experiencefuzzy enhanced fractional-order PID controller is adoptedto achieve the reactor power changing with steam flowand maintain the coolant average temperature 119879av constantPower control system regards the average temperature devi-ation and steam flow as the main control signal and assistantcontrol signal respectively Since the thermal output ofreactor is proportional to the steamoutput of steamgeneratorthe consideration of steam flow variation could calculate thepower need immediately which impels the reactor powerto follow secondary loop load changing and improves themobility of equipment When the load alters reactor powercould be determined by the following equation

6 Simulation Results and Discussion

In this section simulations ofWKNNandWKNN fractional-order PID controller have been carried out aiming to examineperformance and assess accuracy of the algorithm proposedin the previous sections and it compares experimentally theperformance of the WKNN algorithm and WNN algorithmTo display the results clearly simulations are divided intotwo parts One is achieved as numerical examples in Matlabprogramwhich includesWKNNalgorithm and its fractional-order PID application in time delay system Another iswritten in FORTRAN language and connected with RELAP5 which implements the reactor power controlling

61 Numerical Examples To demonstrate the performance ofWKNNalgorithm two simulations are conducted comparingwith the WNN algorithm The structure of neural networkcould be consulted in Figure 3 and the initial weights aregenerated randomlyThe first experiment shows the behaviorof WKNN and WNN in a stationary environment of whichnorm output is 06 (Figures 5 and 6) And the second oneoperates in the variable time process as 03 sin(002119905) + 05(Figures 7 and 8)

Figures 6ndash9 adopt WKNN and WNN to calculate theregression process in the constant and time varying environ-ment respectively And both methods bring relatively largesystem error in initial period In Figures 6 and 7 the constantnorm output and straight regression process emphasize thefaster convergence of algorithms In Figures 8 and 9 the timevarying impels the regression process more difficult than theprevious experiment Firstly there is overshoot from 0 s to50 s in theWNN which impels the error ofWNN to decreaseslowly When the error of WNN starts to reduce the oneof WKNN has approached zero Secondly comparing thetwo error curves the phenomenon could not be ignored inwhich the WKNN curve has sharp points while the WNNcurve has the relative smoothness Thirdly although theinitial parameters have randomness the regression process isperiodical The figures imply that the convergence rate and

by stretching and translatingMeanwhile RBF network needsto identify the model of object and obtain the Jacobianinformation when it tunes the network weights and it ishard to gain the Jacobian information of complex industrialsystem But the conventional WNN could tune the PIDcontroller without such information and is more appropriateto be the parent body for improvement Thus this paperproposes a novel neural network based on wavelet kernelfunction and combines with fuzzy logic rules to achieve theonline tuning of FOPID Experiment results validate that thecontrol strategy and controller design improve the accuracyand speed which could control the nuclear reactor poweroperation and enhances the overall efficiency

2 The Description of Kernel LMS Algorithm

In this section the algorithm of kernel LMS is introduced as ashow review for wavelet kernel neural network Kernel LMSis an approach to perform the LMS algorithm in the kernelfeature space In the LMS algorithm the hypothesis space1198671is composed by all the linear operators on 119880 (mapping

119908 119880 rarr 119877) [28] which is embedded in a Hilbert spaceand the linear operator represents standard inner productThe LMS algorithm minimizes the total instantaneous errorof the system output

where e(119899) = norm(119899) minus x(119899)w(119899) norm is the desired valuew(119899) is the weight vector x(119899) is the input vector and 119899 is theinstant Using the straightforward stochastic gradient descentupdate rule the weight vector w is approximated based oninput vector x

w (119899 + 1) = w (119899) + 120578e (119899) x (119899) (2)

where 120578 is the step-size By training step by step the weightwis updated as a linear combination of the previous and presentinput vector

This LMS algorithm learns linear patterns satisfactorilywhile it could not approach the same sound effect in non-linear pattern Motivated by the drawback Pokharel withother scholars extended the LMS algorithm to RKHS by thekernel trick [28 29] Kernel methods map the input into ahigh dimensional space (HDS) [30] And any kernel functionbased on Mercerrsquos theorem has the follow mapping [31]

119896 (119909 1199091015840

)⟩ = 120601119879

When the input in (2) consists of 120601(x(1)) 120601(x(2)) 120601(x(119899)) but not x(1) x(2) x(119899) 120601(x(119899)) is the infinitefeature vector transformed from input vector x(119899) The LMSalgorithm is no longer applicable and the total instantaneouserror of the system output is as follows

119864 =1

2sum(norm minus 120601 (x (119899))w (119899))2 (4)

where 120601(x(119899)) is matrixes of input vector norm is desiredvalue vector and w(119899) is weight vector in RKHS

Then build the hypothesis that w(0) = 0 for convenienceand (2) could convert to

w (119899) = 120578119899minus1

119894=0

and k = [119896(x(1) x(119899)) 119896(x(2) x(119899)) 119896(x(119899 minus 1) x(119899))]From (4)ndash(6) the KLMS algorithm remedies the defectof the LMS algorithm of its relatively small dimensionalinput space and improves the well-posedness study in theinfinite dimensional space with finite training data [28] Asthe application of adaptive filter theory the neural networkcould take advantage of the KLMS algorithm which endowsthe learning of neural network with more efficiency andreliability

3 Wavelet Kernel Neural Network

Following the principle above this paper acquires the waveletkernel function by Mercer theorem and proposes a morecompetent method to update parameters on basis of con-ventional WNN With the kernel LMS above the waveletkernel neural network is proposed in this section on the basisof wavelet kernel function and conventional wavelet neuralnetwork First the wavelet kernel function is constructedwhich is admissible neural network kernel Second thewavelet kernel neural network is proposed including neuronexplanation and weight updating Then the modulationsof adaptive variable step-size and wavelet kernel width arediscussed in Sections 33 and 34

The conception above is the foundation of wavelet anal-ysis and theory Note that the wavelet kernel function forneural network is a special kernel function and comes fromwavelet theory it would be the horizontal function 119896(119909 1199091015840) =119896(119909 minus 119909

) and satisfied the condition of Mercer theorem [34]which could be summarized as follows

Lemma 1 A continuous symmetric kernel is 119896(119909 1199091015840) and 119909is bounded likewise for 1199091015840 Then 119896(119909 1199091015840) is the valid kernelfunction for wavelet neural network if and only if it holds forany nonzero function ℎ(119909)which makes int

With regard to the horizontal floating function thereis an analogous theory for support vector machine (SVM)[35] Allowing for the affiliation between SVM and NN [34]an approved horizontal floating kernel function of SVM iseffective in NN When 120595(119909) is a mother wavelet 119886 is adilation factor and 119887 is a translation factor 119909 119886 isin 119877the horizontal floating translation-invariant wavelet kernelscould be expressed as [36]

Since the number of wavelet kernel functions whichsatisfy the horizontal floating function condition [37] is notmuch up to now the neural network in this paper adopts anexistent wavelet kernel function Morlet wavelet function

33 The Updating of Adaptive Variable Step According tothe algorithm presented above (see Section 2) it stresses thatthe adaptive variable step could be regarded as a significantcoefficient with the ability to influence the adaptivity andeffectivity of the algorithm The stability and convergenceof the algorithm are influenced by step-size parameter andthe choice of this parameter reflects a compromise betweenthe dual requirements of rapid convergence and small mis-adjustment A large prediction error would cause the step-size to increase to provide faster tracking while a smallprediction error will result in a decrease in the step-sizeto yield smaller misadjustment [37] Therefore this paperimproves the NLMS algorithm derived from LMS algorithmwhich is propitious to multidimensional nonlinear structureand avoids the limitation of linear structure

NLMS focuses on the main problem of LMS algorithmrsquosconstant step-size which designs an adaptive step-size toavoid instability and picks the convergence speedup

where 120578(119899) = 1⟨119906(119899) 119906(119899)⟩ is the adaptive variable step-sizeThen weights are expanded to 119870 dimension matrix w

119896(119899) Motivated by the drawback of

completes the proof

On the basis of the discussion above (22) could berepresented as a special situation by Theorem 2 when theslope of function 119891(sdot) is 1 Theorem 2 expands the NLMS tothe multidimensional nonlinear space from the linear spaceand broadens the application of NLMS Compared with thevariable step-size in (22) (27) and (28) could be defined as theadaptive variable step-size of NLMS in the extended space

When ⟨u119870(119899) u119870(119899)⟩ is too small the problem caused by

4 The Model Design of IPWR

In order to reduce the volume of the pressure vessel theintegration reactor generally uses compactOTSG Since thereis no separator in the steam generator the superheated steamproduced by OTSG could improve the thermal efficiencyof the secondary loop systems Compared with naturalcirculation steam generator U-tube the OTSG is designedwith simpler structure but less water volume in heat transfertube Since it is difficult to measure the water level in OTSGespecially during variable load operation the OTSG needsa high-efficiency control system to ensure safe operationPrimary coolant average temperature is an important param-eter to ensure steam generator heat exchange The controlscheme with a constant average temperature of the coolantcan achieve accurate control of the reactor power and avoidgeneration of large volume coolant loop changes

5 The Control Strategy andFOPID Controller Design

New control law is demanded in nuclear device [39] Whenthe nuclear power plant operates stably on different con-ditions the variation of main parameters in primary andsecondary side is indeterminate The operation strategyemploys the coolant average temperature 119879av to be constantwith load changing The WKNN fuzzy fractional-order PIDsystem achieves coolant average temperature invariability bycontrolling reactor power system (Figure 4)

The five parameters including three coefficients andtwo exponents are acquired in two formsmdashfuzzy logic andwavelet kernel neural network The idea of this methodcombination is born from the fact that the power level ofnuclear reactor tends to alter dramatically in a short while andthen maintain slight variation within a certain period Dueto the boundedness of the WKNN excitation function theoutput range of FOPIDcoefficients could not bewide enoughThe initial parameters of FOPID are set byWKNN and fuzzylogic Moreover the exponents of FOPID have no need tovary with the small changing As a consequence the fuzzylogic rule is executed when the reactor power transformsremarkably to tune the five parameters of FOPID and theWKNN retains updating and tuning of the coefficients basedon the fuzzy logic all the while The process is illustrated inFigure 5

Based on theoretical analysis and design experiencefuzzy enhanced fractional-order PID controller is adoptedto achieve the reactor power changing with steam flowand maintain the coolant average temperature 119879av constantPower control system regards the average temperature devi-ation and steam flow as the main control signal and assistantcontrol signal respectively Since the thermal output ofreactor is proportional to the steamoutput of steamgeneratorthe consideration of steam flow variation could calculate thepower need immediately which impels the reactor powerto follow secondary loop load changing and improves themobility of equipment When the load alters reactor powercould be determined by the following equation

6 Simulation Results and Discussion

In this section simulations ofWKNNandWKNN fractional-order PID controller have been carried out aiming to examineperformance and assess accuracy of the algorithm proposedin the previous sections and it compares experimentally theperformance of the WKNN algorithm and WNN algorithmTo display the results clearly simulations are divided intotwo parts One is achieved as numerical examples in Matlabprogramwhich includesWKNNalgorithm and its fractional-order PID application in time delay system Another iswritten in FORTRAN language and connected with RELAP5 which implements the reactor power controlling

61 Numerical Examples To demonstrate the performance ofWKNNalgorithm two simulations are conducted comparingwith the WNN algorithm The structure of neural networkcould be consulted in Figure 3 and the initial weights aregenerated randomlyThe first experiment shows the behaviorof WKNN and WNN in a stationary environment of whichnorm output is 06 (Figures 5 and 6) And the second oneoperates in the variable time process as 03 sin(002119905) + 05(Figures 7 and 8)

Figures 6ndash9 adopt WKNN and WNN to calculate theregression process in the constant and time varying environ-ment respectively And both methods bring relatively largesystem error in initial period In Figures 6 and 7 the constantnorm output and straight regression process emphasize thefaster convergence of algorithms In Figures 8 and 9 the timevarying impels the regression process more difficult than theprevious experiment Firstly there is overshoot from 0 s to50 s in theWNN which impels the error ofWNN to decreaseslowly When the error of WNN starts to reduce the oneof WKNN has approached zero Secondly comparing thetwo error curves the phenomenon could not be ignored inwhich the WKNN curve has sharp points while the WNNcurve has the relative smoothness Thirdly although theinitial parameters have randomness the regression process isperiodical The figures imply that the convergence rate and

3 Wavelet Kernel Neural Network

Following the principle above this paper acquires the waveletkernel function by Mercer theorem and proposes a morecompetent method to update parameters on basis of con-ventional WNN With the kernel LMS above the waveletkernel neural network is proposed in this section on the basisof wavelet kernel function and conventional wavelet neuralnetwork First the wavelet kernel function is constructedwhich is admissible neural network kernel Second thewavelet kernel neural network is proposed including neuronexplanation and weight updating Then the modulationsof adaptive variable step-size and wavelet kernel width arediscussed in Sections 33 and 34

where (119908) is the Fourier transform of 120595(119909) For a commonmultidimensional wavelet function if the wavelet function ofone dimension is 120595(119909) which satisfies the condition (8) theproduct of one-dimensional (1D) wavelet functions could bedescribed by tensor theory [29 31]

The conception above is the foundation of wavelet anal-ysis and theory Note that the wavelet kernel function forneural network is a special kernel function and comes fromwavelet theory it would be the horizontal function 119896(119909 1199091015840) =119896(119909 minus 119909

) and satisfied the condition of Mercer theorem [34]which could be summarized as follows

Lemma 1 A continuous symmetric kernel is 119896(119909 1199091015840) and 119909is bounded likewise for 1199091015840 Then 119896(119909 1199091015840) is the valid kernelfunction for wavelet neural network if and only if it holds forany nonzero function ℎ(119909)which makes int

With regard to the horizontal floating function thereis an analogous theory for support vector machine (SVM)[35] Allowing for the affiliation between SVM and NN [34]an approved horizontal floating kernel function of SVM iseffective in NN When 120595(119909) is a mother wavelet 119886 is adilation factor and 119887 is a translation factor 119909 119886 isin 119877the horizontal floating translation-invariant wavelet kernelscould be expressed as [36]

Since the number of wavelet kernel functions whichsatisfy the horizontal floating function condition [37] is notmuch up to now the neural network in this paper adopts anexistent wavelet kernel function Morlet wavelet function

33 The Updating of Adaptive Variable Step According tothe algorithm presented above (see Section 2) it stresses thatthe adaptive variable step could be regarded as a significantcoefficient with the ability to influence the adaptivity andeffectivity of the algorithm The stability and convergenceof the algorithm are influenced by step-size parameter andthe choice of this parameter reflects a compromise betweenthe dual requirements of rapid convergence and small mis-adjustment A large prediction error would cause the step-size to increase to provide faster tracking while a smallprediction error will result in a decrease in the step-sizeto yield smaller misadjustment [37] Therefore this paperimproves the NLMS algorithm derived from LMS algorithmwhich is propitious to multidimensional nonlinear structureand avoids the limitation of linear structure

NLMS focuses on the main problem of LMS algorithmrsquosconstant step-size which designs an adaptive step-size toavoid instability and picks the convergence speedup

where 1⟨119906(119899) 119906(119899)⟩ is regarded as the variable step-sizecompared with the LMS algorithm But the NLMS has littleability to perform in the nonlinear space By the kernel trickthe kernel function could not only improve thewavelet neuralnetwork but also update the step-size of neural networkself-adaptively As what (17) reveals z

119870is a consequence

of nonlinear function 119891(sdot) Since 119891(sdot) is continuously dif-ferentiable this function could be matched by innumerablelinear function following the principle of the definition ofdifferential calculus

Theorem 2 The weights updating satisfies the NLMS condi-tion in the linear integrable space 1198711(119877) as follows

119908 (119899 + 1) = 119908 (119899) + 120578 (119899) times 119890 (119899) times 119906 (119899) (23)

where 120578(119899) = 1⟨119906(119899) 119906(119899)⟩ is the adaptive variable step-sizeThen weights are expanded to 119870 dimension matrix w

119870(119899) and

adjusted as

120578119896(119899) (119896 = 1 2 119870) is given as

Proof Hypothesize that 120576 is small enough and linear function119865(119899) = 120581(119899)u

119870(119899)+120574(119899) exists which has the relationship that

Equations (27) and (28) reveal that the 120578119870(119899) is indepen-

dent of the linear function intercept 120574(119899) and only relatesto the input and slope 120581

119896(119899) Motivated by the drawback of

slight error 120576 from 119865(119899) minus 119891(119899) the 1205812119896(119899) in (28) is replaced

by 1198911015840(w119870(119899) times u

119870(119899)) which improves the accuracy and

completes the proof

On the basis of the discussion above (22) could berepresented as a special situation by Theorem 2 when theslope of function 119891(sdot) is 1 Theorem 2 expands the NLMS tothe multidimensional nonlinear space from the linear spaceand broadens the application of NLMS Compared with thevariable step-size in (22) (27) and (28) could be defined as theadaptive variable step-size of NLMS in the extended space

When ⟨u119870(119899) u119870(119899)⟩ is too small the problem caused by

numerical calculation has to be considered To overcome thisdifficulty (28) is altered to

4 The Model Design of IPWR

In order to reduce the volume of the pressure vessel theintegration reactor generally uses compactOTSG Since thereis no separator in the steam generator the superheated steamproduced by OTSG could improve the thermal efficiencyof the secondary loop systems Compared with naturalcirculation steam generator U-tube the OTSG is designedwith simpler structure but less water volume in heat transfertube Since it is difficult to measure the water level in OTSGespecially during variable load operation the OTSG needsa high-efficiency control system to ensure safe operationPrimary coolant average temperature is an important param-eter to ensure steam generator heat exchange The controlscheme with a constant average temperature of the coolantcan achieve accurate control of the reactor power and avoidgeneration of large volume coolant loop changes

5 The Control Strategy andFOPID Controller Design

New control law is demanded in nuclear device [39] Whenthe nuclear power plant operates stably on different con-ditions the variation of main parameters in primary andsecondary side is indeterminate The operation strategyemploys the coolant average temperature 119879av to be constantwith load changing The WKNN fuzzy fractional-order PIDsystem achieves coolant average temperature invariability bycontrolling reactor power system (Figure 4)

The five parameters including three coefficients andtwo exponents are acquired in two formsmdashfuzzy logic andwavelet kernel neural network The idea of this methodcombination is born from the fact that the power level ofnuclear reactor tends to alter dramatically in a short while andthen maintain slight variation within a certain period Dueto the boundedness of the WKNN excitation function theoutput range of FOPIDcoefficients could not bewide enoughThe initial parameters of FOPID are set byWKNN and fuzzylogic Moreover the exponents of FOPID have no need tovary with the small changing As a consequence the fuzzylogic rule is executed when the reactor power transformsremarkably to tune the five parameters of FOPID and theWKNN retains updating and tuning of the coefficients basedon the fuzzy logic all the while The process is illustrated inFigure 5

Based on theoretical analysis and design experiencefuzzy enhanced fractional-order PID controller is adoptedto achieve the reactor power changing with steam flowand maintain the coolant average temperature 119879av constantPower control system regards the average temperature devi-ation and steam flow as the main control signal and assistantcontrol signal respectively Since the thermal output ofreactor is proportional to the steamoutput of steamgeneratorthe consideration of steam flow variation could calculate thepower need immediately which impels the reactor powerto follow secondary loop load changing and improves themobility of equipment When the load alters reactor powercould be determined by the following equation

6 Simulation Results and Discussion

In this section simulations ofWKNNandWKNN fractional-order PID controller have been carried out aiming to examineperformance and assess accuracy of the algorithm proposedin the previous sections and it compares experimentally theperformance of the WKNN algorithm and WNN algorithmTo display the results clearly simulations are divided intotwo parts One is achieved as numerical examples in Matlabprogramwhich includesWKNNalgorithm and its fractional-order PID application in time delay system Another iswritten in FORTRAN language and connected with RELAP5 which implements the reactor power controlling

61 Numerical Examples To demonstrate the performance ofWKNNalgorithm two simulations are conducted comparingwith the WNN algorithm The structure of neural networkcould be consulted in Figure 3 and the initial weights aregenerated randomlyThe first experiment shows the behaviorof WKNN and WNN in a stationary environment of whichnorm output is 06 (Figures 5 and 6) And the second oneoperates in the variable time process as 03 sin(002119905) + 05(Figures 7 and 8)

Figures 6ndash9 adopt WKNN and WNN to calculate theregression process in the constant and time varying environ-ment respectively And both methods bring relatively largesystem error in initial period In Figures 6 and 7 the constantnorm output and straight regression process emphasize thefaster convergence of algorithms In Figures 8 and 9 the timevarying impels the regression process more difficult than theprevious experiment Firstly there is overshoot from 0 s to50 s in theWNN which impels the error ofWNN to decreaseslowly When the error of WNN starts to reduce the oneof WKNN has approached zero Secondly comparing thetwo error curves the phenomenon could not be ignored inwhich the WKNN curve has sharp points while the WNNcurve has the relative smoothness Thirdly although theinitial parameters have randomness the regression process isperiodical The figures imply that the convergence rate and

33 The Updating of Adaptive Variable Step According tothe algorithm presented above (see Section 2) it stresses thatthe adaptive variable step could be regarded as a significantcoefficient with the ability to influence the adaptivity andeffectivity of the algorithm The stability and convergenceof the algorithm are influenced by step-size parameter andthe choice of this parameter reflects a compromise betweenthe dual requirements of rapid convergence and small mis-adjustment A large prediction error would cause the step-size to increase to provide faster tracking while a smallprediction error will result in a decrease in the step-sizeto yield smaller misadjustment [37] Therefore this paperimproves the NLMS algorithm derived from LMS algorithmwhich is propitious to multidimensional nonlinear structureand avoids the limitation of linear structure

NLMS focuses on the main problem of LMS algorithmrsquosconstant step-size which designs an adaptive step-size toavoid instability and picks the convergence speedup

where 1⟨119906(119899) 119906(119899)⟩ is regarded as the variable step-sizecompared with the LMS algorithm But the NLMS has littleability to perform in the nonlinear space By the kernel trickthe kernel function could not only improve thewavelet neuralnetwork but also update the step-size of neural networkself-adaptively As what (17) reveals z

119870is a consequence

of nonlinear function 119891(sdot) Since 119891(sdot) is continuously dif-ferentiable this function could be matched by innumerablelinear function following the principle of the definition ofdifferential calculus

Theorem 2 The weights updating satisfies the NLMS condi-tion in the linear integrable space 1198711(119877) as follows

119908 (119899 + 1) = 119908 (119899) + 120578 (119899) times 119890 (119899) times 119906 (119899) (23)

where 120578(119899) = 1⟨119906(119899) 119906(119899)⟩ is the adaptive variable step-sizeThen weights are expanded to 119870 dimension matrix w

119870(119899) and

adjusted as

where the nonlinear function119891(sdot) is continuously differentiableeverywhere the 120578

119870(119899) will have119870 elements and each step-size

120578119896(119899) (119896 = 1 2 119870) is given as

Proof Hypothesize that 120576 is small enough and linear function119865(119899) = 120581(119899)u

119870(119899)+120574(119899) exists which has the relationship that

119865(119899) minus 119891(119899) lt 120576 in the closed interval [119886 119887] therefore regardthat 119865(119899) asymp 119891(119899) and 1198911015840(119899) asymp 120581 are satisfied

Equations (27) and (28) reveal that the 120578119870(119899) is indepen-

dent of the linear function intercept 120574(119899) and only relatesto the input and slope 120581

119896(119899) Motivated by the drawback of

slight error 120576 from 119865(119899) minus 119891(119899) the 1205812119896(119899) in (28) is replaced

by 1198911015840(w119870(119899) times u

119870(119899)) which improves the accuracy and

completes the proof

On the basis of the discussion above (22) could berepresented as a special situation by Theorem 2 when theslope of function 119891(sdot) is 1 Theorem 2 expands the NLMS tothe multidimensional nonlinear space from the linear spaceand broadens the application of NLMS Compared with thevariable step-size in (22) (27) and (28) could be defined as theadaptive variable step-size of NLMS in the extended space

When ⟨u119870(119899) u119870(119899)⟩ is too small the problem caused by

numerical calculation has to be considered To overcome thisdifficulty (28) is altered to

where 1205902V gt 0 which is set as a pretty small value The weightsupdating in (20) is more complicated than that betweenoutput layer and hidden layer Because the updating in (20)is based on the output layer meanwhile the existence ofsum119870e(119901)1198911015840(120593119879(k

34 The Modulation of Wavelet Kernel Width The goalof minimizing the mean square error could be achievedby gradient search If kernel space structure cost functionis derivable the wavelet kernel of neural network couldalso be deduced by gradient algorithm In consideration ofconventional wavelet neural network the gradient searchmethod could be utilized for updating wavelet kernel weightdue to the derivability of the wavelet kernel function Besidesthe synaptic weights among various layers of network thereis another coefficientmdashdilation factor 119886mdashin (11) which alsoinfluences the mean square error With respect to the costfunction (14) the dilation factor 119886 is corrected by

4 The Model Design of IPWR

In order to reduce the volume of the pressure vessel theintegration reactor generally uses compactOTSG Since thereis no separator in the steam generator the superheated steamproduced by OTSG could improve the thermal efficiencyof the secondary loop systems Compared with naturalcirculation steam generator U-tube the OTSG is designedwith simpler structure but less water volume in heat transfertube Since it is difficult to measure the water level in OTSGespecially during variable load operation the OTSG needsa high-efficiency control system to ensure safe operationPrimary coolant average temperature is an important param-eter to ensure steam generator heat exchange The controlscheme with a constant average temperature of the coolantcan achieve accurate control of the reactor power and avoidgeneration of large volume coolant loop changes

5 The Control Strategy andFOPID Controller Design

New control law is demanded in nuclear device [39] Whenthe nuclear power plant operates stably on different con-ditions the variation of main parameters in primary andsecondary side is indeterminate The operation strategyemploys the coolant average temperature 119879av to be constantwith load changing The WKNN fuzzy fractional-order PIDsystem achieves coolant average temperature invariability bycontrolling reactor power system (Figure 4)

The five parameters including three coefficients andtwo exponents are acquired in two formsmdashfuzzy logic andwavelet kernel neural network The idea of this methodcombination is born from the fact that the power level ofnuclear reactor tends to alter dramatically in a short while andthen maintain slight variation within a certain period Dueto the boundedness of the WKNN excitation function theoutput range of FOPIDcoefficients could not bewide enoughThe initial parameters of FOPID are set byWKNN and fuzzylogic Moreover the exponents of FOPID have no need tovary with the small changing As a consequence the fuzzylogic rule is executed when the reactor power transformsremarkably to tune the five parameters of FOPID and theWKNN retains updating and tuning of the coefficients basedon the fuzzy logic all the while The process is illustrated inFigure 5

Based on theoretical analysis and design experiencefuzzy enhanced fractional-order PID controller is adoptedto achieve the reactor power changing with steam flowand maintain the coolant average temperature 119879av constantPower control system regards the average temperature devi-ation and steam flow as the main control signal and assistantcontrol signal respectively Since the thermal output ofreactor is proportional to the steamoutput of steamgeneratorthe consideration of steam flow variation could calculate thepower need immediately which impels the reactor powerto follow secondary loop load changing and improves themobility of equipment When the load alters reactor powercould be determined by the following equation

Figures 6ndash9 adopt WKNN and WNN to calculate theregression process in the constant and time varying environ-ment respectively And both methods bring relatively largesystem error in initial period In Figures 6 and 7 the constantnorm output and straight regression process emphasize thefaster convergence of algorithms In Figures 8 and 9 the timevarying impels the regression process more difficult than theprevious experiment Firstly there is overshoot from 0 s to50 s in theWNN which impels the error ofWNN to decreaseslowly When the error of WNN starts to reduce the oneof WKNN has approached zero Secondly comparing thetwo error curves the phenomenon could not be ignored inwhich the WKNN curve has sharp points while the WNNcurve has the relative smoothness Thirdly although theinitial parameters have randomness the regression process isperiodical The figures imply that the convergence rate and

33 The Updating of Adaptive Variable Step According tothe algorithm presented above (see Section 2) it stresses thatthe adaptive variable step could be regarded as a significantcoefficient with the ability to influence the adaptivity andeffectivity of the algorithm The stability and convergenceof the algorithm are influenced by step-size parameter andthe choice of this parameter reflects a compromise betweenthe dual requirements of rapid convergence and small mis-adjustment A large prediction error would cause the step-size to increase to provide faster tracking while a smallprediction error will result in a decrease in the step-sizeto yield smaller misadjustment [37] Therefore this paperimproves the NLMS algorithm derived from LMS algorithmwhich is propitious to multidimensional nonlinear structureand avoids the limitation of linear structure

NLMS focuses on the main problem of LMS algorithmrsquosconstant step-size which designs an adaptive step-size toavoid instability and picks the convergence speedup

where 1⟨119906(119899) 119906(119899)⟩ is regarded as the variable step-sizecompared with the LMS algorithm But the NLMS has littleability to perform in the nonlinear space By the kernel trickthe kernel function could not only improve thewavelet neuralnetwork but also update the step-size of neural networkself-adaptively As what (17) reveals z

119870is a consequence

of nonlinear function 119891(sdot) Since 119891(sdot) is continuously dif-ferentiable this function could be matched by innumerablelinear function following the principle of the definition ofdifferential calculus

Theorem 2 The weights updating satisfies the NLMS condi-tion in the linear integrable space 1198711(119877) as follows

119908 (119899 + 1) = 119908 (119899) + 120578 (119899) times 119890 (119899) times 119906 (119899) (23)

where 120578(119899) = 1⟨119906(119899) 119906(119899)⟩ is the adaptive variable step-sizeThen weights are expanded to 119870 dimension matrix w

119870(119899) and

adjusted as

where the nonlinear function119891(sdot) is continuously differentiableeverywhere the 120578

120578119896(119899) (119896 = 1 2 119870) is given as

Proof Hypothesize that 120576 is small enough and linear function119865(119899) = 120581(119899)u

119870(119899)+120574(119899) exists which has the relationship that

119865(119899) minus 119891(119899) lt 120576 in the closed interval [119886 119887] therefore regardthat 119865(119899) asymp 119891(119899) and 1198911015840(119899) asymp 120581 are satisfied

Equations (27) and (28) reveal that the 120578119870(119899) is indepen-

dent of the linear function intercept 120574(119899) and only relatesto the input and slope 120581

119896(119899) Motivated by the drawback of

slight error 120576 from 119865(119899) minus 119891(119899) the 1205812119896(119899) in (28) is replaced

by 1198911015840(w119870(119899) times u

119870(119899)) which improves the accuracy and

completes the proof

On the basis of the discussion above (22) could berepresented as a special situation by Theorem 2 when theslope of function 119891(sdot) is 1 Theorem 2 expands the NLMS tothe multidimensional nonlinear space from the linear spaceand broadens the application of NLMS Compared with thevariable step-size in (22) (27) and (28) could be defined as theadaptive variable step-size of NLMS in the extended space

When ⟨u119870(119899) u119870(119899)⟩ is too small the problem caused by

numerical calculation has to be considered To overcome thisdifficulty (28) is altered to

where 1205902V gt 0 which is set as a pretty small value The weightsupdating in (20) is more complicated than that betweenoutput layer and hidden layer Because the updating in (20)is based on the output layer meanwhile the existence ofsum119870e(119901)1198911015840(120593119879(k

34 The Modulation of Wavelet Kernel Width The goalof minimizing the mean square error could be achievedby gradient search If kernel space structure cost functionis derivable the wavelet kernel of neural network couldalso be deduced by gradient algorithm In consideration ofconventional wavelet neural network the gradient searchmethod could be utilized for updating wavelet kernel weightdue to the derivability of the wavelet kernel function Besidesthe synaptic weights among various layers of network thereis another coefficientmdashdilation factor 119886mdashin (11) which alsoinfluences the mean square error With respect to the costfunction (14) the dilation factor 119886 is corrected by

4 The Model Design of IPWR

In order to reduce the volume of the pressure vessel theintegration reactor generally uses compactOTSG Since thereis no separator in the steam generator the superheated steamproduced by OTSG could improve the thermal efficiencyof the secondary loop systems Compared with naturalcirculation steam generator U-tube the OTSG is designedwith simpler structure but less water volume in heat transfertube Since it is difficult to measure the water level in OTSGespecially during variable load operation the OTSG needsa high-efficiency control system to ensure safe operationPrimary coolant average temperature is an important param-eter to ensure steam generator heat exchange The controlscheme with a constant average temperature of the coolantcan achieve accurate control of the reactor power and avoidgeneration of large volume coolant loop changes

5 The Control Strategy andFOPID Controller Design

New control law is demanded in nuclear device [39] Whenthe nuclear power plant operates stably on different con-ditions the variation of main parameters in primary andsecondary side is indeterminate The operation strategyemploys the coolant average temperature 119879av to be constantwith load changing The WKNN fuzzy fractional-order PIDsystem achieves coolant average temperature invariability bycontrolling reactor power system (Figure 4)

The five parameters including three coefficients andtwo exponents are acquired in two formsmdashfuzzy logic andwavelet kernel neural network The idea of this methodcombination is born from the fact that the power level ofnuclear reactor tends to alter dramatically in a short while andthen maintain slight variation within a certain period Dueto the boundedness of the WKNN excitation function theoutput range of FOPIDcoefficients could not bewide enoughThe initial parameters of FOPID are set byWKNN and fuzzylogic Moreover the exponents of FOPID have no need tovary with the small changing As a consequence the fuzzylogic rule is executed when the reactor power transformsremarkably to tune the five parameters of FOPID and theWKNN retains updating and tuning of the coefficients basedon the fuzzy logic all the while The process is illustrated inFigure 5

Based on theoretical analysis and design experiencefuzzy enhanced fractional-order PID controller is adoptedto achieve the reactor power changing with steam flowand maintain the coolant average temperature 119879av constantPower control system regards the average temperature devi-ation and steam flow as the main control signal and assistantcontrol signal respectively Since the thermal output ofreactor is proportional to the steamoutput of steamgeneratorthe consideration of steam flow variation could calculate thepower need immediately which impels the reactor powerto follow secondary loop load changing and improves themobility of equipment When the load alters reactor powercould be determined by the following equation

6 Simulation Results and Discussion

In this section simulations ofWKNNandWKNN fractional-order PID controller have been carried out aiming to examineperformance and assess accuracy of the algorithm proposedin the previous sections and it compares experimentally theperformance of the WKNN algorithm and WNN algorithmTo display the results clearly simulations are divided intotwo parts One is achieved as numerical examples in Matlabprogramwhich includesWKNNalgorithm and its fractional-order PID application in time delay system Another iswritten in FORTRAN language and connected with RELAP5 which implements the reactor power controlling

61 Numerical Examples To demonstrate the performance ofWKNNalgorithm two simulations are conducted comparingwith the WNN algorithm The structure of neural networkcould be consulted in Figure 3 and the initial weights aregenerated randomlyThe first experiment shows the behaviorof WKNN and WNN in a stationary environment of whichnorm output is 06 (Figures 5 and 6) And the second oneoperates in the variable time process as 03 sin(002119905) + 05(Figures 7 and 8)

Figures 6ndash9 adopt WKNN and WNN to calculate theregression process in the constant and time varying environ-ment respectively And both methods bring relatively largesystem error in initial period In Figures 6 and 7 the constantnorm output and straight regression process emphasize thefaster convergence of algorithms In Figures 8 and 9 the timevarying impels the regression process more difficult than theprevious experiment Firstly there is overshoot from 0 s to50 s in theWNN which impels the error ofWNN to decreaseslowly When the error of WNN starts to reduce the oneof WKNN has approached zero Secondly comparing thetwo error curves the phenomenon could not be ignored inwhich the WKNN curve has sharp points while the WNNcurve has the relative smoothness Thirdly although theinitial parameters have randomness the regression process isperiodical The figures imply that the convergence rate and

heat by feedwater and primary coolant average temperatureincreases The reactor power control system accords withthe deviation of average temperature and introduces negativereactivity to bring the power down and maintain the temper-ature constant The variation of outlet and inlet temperatureis shown in Figure 12(c) The primary coolant flow staysthe same and reduces the core temperature difference toguarantee the heat derivation In the process of rapid loadvariation the change of coolant temperature causes themotion of coolant loading and then leads to the variationof voltage regulator pressure (Figure 12(d)) The pressuremaximum approaches 1562MPa however it drops rapidlywith the power decrease and volume compression Thenpressure comes to the stable state when coolant temperaturestabilizes

7 Conclusions

The goal of this paper is to present a novel wavelet kernelneural network Before the proposed WKNN the waveletkernel function has been confirmed to be valid in neuralnetwork The WKNN takes advantage of KLMS and NLMSwhich endow the algorithm with reliability stability and wellconvergence On basis of theWKNN a novel control strategyfor FOPID controller design has been proposed It overcomesthe boundary problem of activation functions in network andutilizes the experiential knowledge of researchers sufficientlyFinally by establishing the model of IPWR the methodabove is applied in a certain simulation of load shedding andsimulation results validate the fact that the method proposedhas the practicability and reliability in actual complicatedsystem

4 The Model Design of IPWR

In order to reduce the volume of the pressure vessel theintegration reactor generally uses compactOTSG Since thereis no separator in the steam generator the superheated steamproduced by OTSG could improve the thermal efficiencyof the secondary loop systems Compared with naturalcirculation steam generator U-tube the OTSG is designedwith simpler structure but less water volume in heat transfertube Since it is difficult to measure the water level in OTSGespecially during variable load operation the OTSG needsa high-efficiency control system to ensure safe operationPrimary coolant average temperature is an important param-eter to ensure steam generator heat exchange The controlscheme with a constant average temperature of the coolantcan achieve accurate control of the reactor power and avoidgeneration of large volume coolant loop changes

5 The Control Strategy andFOPID Controller Design

New control law is demanded in nuclear device [39] Whenthe nuclear power plant operates stably on different con-ditions the variation of main parameters in primary andsecondary side is indeterminate The operation strategyemploys the coolant average temperature 119879av to be constantwith load changing The WKNN fuzzy fractional-order PIDsystem achieves coolant average temperature invariability bycontrolling reactor power system (Figure 4)

The five parameters including three coefficients andtwo exponents are acquired in two formsmdashfuzzy logic andwavelet kernel neural network The idea of this methodcombination is born from the fact that the power level ofnuclear reactor tends to alter dramatically in a short while andthen maintain slight variation within a certain period Dueto the boundedness of the WKNN excitation function theoutput range of FOPIDcoefficients could not bewide enoughThe initial parameters of FOPID are set byWKNN and fuzzylogic Moreover the exponents of FOPID have no need tovary with the small changing As a consequence the fuzzylogic rule is executed when the reactor power transformsremarkably to tune the five parameters of FOPID and theWKNN retains updating and tuning of the coefficients basedon the fuzzy logic all the while The process is illustrated inFigure 5

Based on theoretical analysis and design experiencefuzzy enhanced fractional-order PID controller is adoptedto achieve the reactor power changing with steam flowand maintain the coolant average temperature 119879av constantPower control system regards the average temperature devi-ation and steam flow as the main control signal and assistantcontrol signal respectively Since the thermal output ofreactor is proportional to the steamoutput of steamgeneratorthe consideration of steam flow variation could calculate thepower need immediately which impels the reactor powerto follow secondary loop load changing and improves themobility of equipment When the load alters reactor powercould be determined by the following equation

6 Simulation Results and Discussion

In this section simulations ofWKNNandWKNN fractional-order PID controller have been carried out aiming to examineperformance and assess accuracy of the algorithm proposedin the previous sections and it compares experimentally theperformance of the WKNN algorithm and WNN algorithmTo display the results clearly simulations are divided intotwo parts One is achieved as numerical examples in Matlabprogramwhich includesWKNNalgorithm and its fractional-order PID application in time delay system Another iswritten in FORTRAN language and connected with RELAP5 which implements the reactor power controlling

61 Numerical Examples To demonstrate the performance ofWKNNalgorithm two simulations are conducted comparingwith the WNN algorithm The structure of neural networkcould be consulted in Figure 3 and the initial weights aregenerated randomlyThe first experiment shows the behaviorof WKNN and WNN in a stationary environment of whichnorm output is 06 (Figures 5 and 6) And the second oneoperates in the variable time process as 03 sin(002119905) + 05(Figures 7 and 8)

Figures 6ndash9 adopt WKNN and WNN to calculate theregression process in the constant and time varying environ-ment respectively And both methods bring relatively largesystem error in initial period In Figures 6 and 7 the constantnorm output and straight regression process emphasize thefaster convergence of algorithms In Figures 8 and 9 the timevarying impels the regression process more difficult than theprevious experiment Firstly there is overshoot from 0 s to50 s in theWNN which impels the error ofWNN to decreaseslowly When the error of WNN starts to reduce the oneof WKNN has approached zero Secondly comparing thetwo error curves the phenomenon could not be ignored inwhich the WKNN curve has sharp points while the WNNcurve has the relative smoothness Thirdly although theinitial parameters have randomness the regression process isperiodical The figures imply that the convergence rate and

5 The Control Strategy andFOPID Controller Design

New control law is demanded in nuclear device [39] Whenthe nuclear power plant operates stably on different con-ditions the variation of main parameters in primary andsecondary side is indeterminate The operation strategyemploys the coolant average temperature 119879av to be constantwith load changing The WKNN fuzzy fractional-order PIDsystem achieves coolant average temperature invariability bycontrolling reactor power system (Figure 4)

The five parameters including three coefficients andtwo exponents are acquired in two formsmdashfuzzy logic andwavelet kernel neural network The idea of this methodcombination is born from the fact that the power level ofnuclear reactor tends to alter dramatically in a short while andthen maintain slight variation within a certain period Dueto the boundedness of the WKNN excitation function theoutput range of FOPIDcoefficients could not bewide enoughThe initial parameters of FOPID are set byWKNN and fuzzylogic Moreover the exponents of FOPID have no need tovary with the small changing As a consequence the fuzzylogic rule is executed when the reactor power transformsremarkably to tune the five parameters of FOPID and theWKNN retains updating and tuning of the coefficients basedon the fuzzy logic all the while The process is illustrated inFigure 5

Based on theoretical analysis and design experiencefuzzy enhanced fractional-order PID controller is adoptedto achieve the reactor power changing with steam flowand maintain the coolant average temperature 119879av constantPower control system regards the average temperature devi-ation and steam flow as the main control signal and assistantcontrol signal respectively Since the thermal output ofreactor is proportional to the steamoutput of steamgeneratorthe consideration of steam flow variation could calculate thepower need immediately which impels the reactor powerto follow secondary loop load changing and improves themobility of equipment When the load alters reactor powercould be determined by the following equation

6 Simulation Results and Discussion

In this section simulations ofWKNNandWKNN fractional-order PID controller have been carried out aiming to examineperformance and assess accuracy of the algorithm proposedin the previous sections and it compares experimentally theperformance of the WKNN algorithm and WNN algorithmTo display the results clearly simulations are divided intotwo parts One is achieved as numerical examples in Matlabprogramwhich includesWKNNalgorithm and its fractional-order PID application in time delay system Another iswritten in FORTRAN language and connected with RELAP5 which implements the reactor power controlling

61 Numerical Examples To demonstrate the performance ofWKNNalgorithm two simulations are conducted comparingwith the WNN algorithm The structure of neural networkcould be consulted in Figure 3 and the initial weights aregenerated randomlyThe first experiment shows the behaviorof WKNN and WNN in a stationary environment of whichnorm output is 06 (Figures 5 and 6) And the second oneoperates in the variable time process as 03 sin(002119905) + 05(Figures 7 and 8)

Figures 6ndash9 adopt WKNN and WNN to calculate theregression process in the constant and time varying environ-ment respectively And both methods bring relatively largesystem error in initial period In Figures 6 and 7 the constantnorm output and straight regression process emphasize thefaster convergence of algorithms In Figures 8 and 9 the timevarying impels the regression process more difficult than theprevious experiment Firstly there is overshoot from 0 s to50 s in theWNN which impels the error ofWNN to decreaseslowly When the error of WNN starts to reduce the oneof WKNN has approached zero Secondly comparing thetwo error curves the phenomenon could not be ignored inwhich the WKNN curve has sharp points while the WNNcurve has the relative smoothness Thirdly although theinitial parameters have randomness the regression process isperiodical The figures imply that the convergence rate and

6 Simulation Results and Discussion

In this section simulations ofWKNNandWKNN fractional-order PID controller have been carried out aiming to examineperformance and assess accuracy of the algorithm proposedin the previous sections and it compares experimentally theperformance of the WKNN algorithm and WNN algorithmTo display the results clearly simulations are divided intotwo parts One is achieved as numerical examples in Matlabprogramwhich includesWKNNalgorithm and its fractional-order PID application in time delay system Another iswritten in FORTRAN language and connected with RELAP5 which implements the reactor power controlling

61 Numerical Examples To demonstrate the performance ofWKNNalgorithm two simulations are conducted comparingwith the WNN algorithm The structure of neural networkcould be consulted in Figure 3 and the initial weights aregenerated randomlyThe first experiment shows the behaviorof WKNN and WNN in a stationary environment of whichnorm output is 06 (Figures 5 and 6) And the second oneoperates in the variable time process as 03 sin(002119905) + 05(Figures 7 and 8)

Figures 6ndash9 adopt WKNN and WNN to calculate theregression process in the constant and time varying environ-ment respectively And both methods bring relatively largesystem error in initial period In Figures 6 and 7 the constantnorm output and straight regression process emphasize thefaster convergence of algorithms In Figures 8 and 9 the timevarying impels the regression process more difficult than theprevious experiment Firstly there is overshoot from 0 s to50 s in theWNN which impels the error ofWNN to decreaseslowly When the error of WNN starts to reduce the oneof WKNN has approached zero Secondly comparing thetwo error curves the phenomenon could not be ignored inwhich the WKNN curve has sharp points while the WNNcurve has the relative smoothness Thirdly although theinitial parameters have randomness the regression process isperiodical The figures imply that the convergence rate and

the effectiveness of tuning the FOPID controller in time delaycontrol To illustrate clearly a known dynamic time delaycontrol system is proposed as follows

regression quality of WKNN are better than that of WNNand initial condition brings no benefit to WKNN Fromthe argument above it indicates preliminary that WKNNalgorithm reduces the amplitude of error variation and hasbetter performance than WNN However it remains to beverified whether or not the WKNN is more appropriatefor FOPID controller tuning in time delay system Then inthis paper the algorithm proposed is designed to examine

the effectiveness of tuning the FOPID controller in time delaycontrol To illustrate clearly a known dynamic time delaycontrol system is proposed as follows

Figure 10 The comparison of controller output

From the information of Figures 10 and 11 when thetime delay system utilizes FOPID controller with the sameorder the overshooting of WNN-FOPID controller and theoutput oscillation frequency and amplitude are all higherthanWKNN-FOPID obviouslyThe control curves and errorcurves of different algorithm confirm that the whole tuningperformance of WKNN is better than that of WNN Tovalidate the algorithm practicability and independence frommodel the next subsection will apply and control a morecomplex nuclear reactor model with the strategy of Section 5

62 RELAP5 Operation Example This paper establishesthe integrated pressurized water reactor (IPWR) model byRELAP5 transient analysis program and the control strategyin Figure 5 is applied to control the reactor power As theboundedness of sigmoid function WNN output parametersfor enhanced PID remained in a range of [minus1 1] To solve thisproblem the expertise improvement unit is added betweenKWNN and power require counter in Figure 1 which cor-rects parameters order of magnitudes Through the analysisof load shedding limiting condition of nuclear power unitthe reliability and availability of the control method proposedhave been demonstrated In the process of load sheddingsecondary feedwater reduces from 100 FP to 60 FP in10 s and then reduces to 20 FP The operating characteristiccould be displayed in Figure 7

Figure 12(a) displays the variation of once-through steamgenerator (OTSG) secondary feedwater flow and steamflow Due to the small water capacity in OTSG the steamflow decreased rapidly when water flow decreases Thenthe decrease in steam flow leads to the reduction of the

heat by feedwater and primary coolant average temperatureincreases The reactor power control system accords withthe deviation of average temperature and introduces negativereactivity to bring the power down and maintain the temper-ature constant The variation of outlet and inlet temperatureis shown in Figure 12(c) The primary coolant flow staysthe same and reduces the core temperature difference toguarantee the heat derivation In the process of rapid loadvariation the change of coolant temperature causes themotion of coolant loading and then leads to the variationof voltage regulator pressure (Figure 12(d)) The pressuremaximum approaches 1562MPa however it drops rapidlywith the power decrease and volume compression Thenpressure comes to the stable state when coolant temperaturestabilizes

7 Conclusions

The goal of this paper is to present a novel wavelet kernelneural network Before the proposed WKNN the waveletkernel function has been confirmed to be valid in neuralnetwork The WKNN takes advantage of KLMS and NLMSwhich endow the algorithm with reliability stability and wellconvergence On basis of theWKNN a novel control strategyfor FOPID controller design has been proposed It overcomesthe boundary problem of activation functions in network andutilizes the experiential knowledge of researchers sufficientlyFinally by establishing the model of IPWR the methodabove is applied in a certain simulation of load shedding andsimulation results validate the fact that the method proposedhas the practicability and reliability in actual complicatedsystem
