en.Wedoany.com Reported - The WWER-1200 power unit simulator, developed by the Jet Engineering Center under the Electric Power Division of Rosatom, has been put into operation at the School of Nuclear Technology of Tomsk Polytechnic University (TPU). It will be used for student training as well as advanced training for employees of nuclear and thermal power plants.
The simulator replicates the operation of the VVER-1200 reactor, which is currently widely used at the Leningrad and Novovoronezh nuclear power plants and internationally. It includes a scaled operating model that simulates a real nuclear power plant control panel and a complete unit mathematical model running in real time, capable of reproducing various operating modes, including abnormal and emergency situations. The use of 3D models and interactive elements makes the training more intuitive and effective.
The commissioning of this simulator is part of the series of events celebrating the 130th anniversary of Tomsk Polytechnic University. Alexander Shutikov, CEO of Rosatom, stated that supporting specialized universities and developing modern educational infrastructure is part of the company's systematic efforts to develop human resources for the industry. Establishing strong university-enterprise cooperation helps cultivate professionals who meet the actual needs of the nuclear energy industry. Alexey Kovalevich, CEO of the Jet Engineering Center, noted that the simulator can reproduce key power unit operation processes in real time and conduct complex scenario simulations, ensuring that students can immerse themselves in a professional environment while still at the university stage.
During an open class for TPU students, representatives from the Jet Engineering Center demonstrated the skills of operating the control panel using the simulator.
