WSC has
entered Phase 2 of the Armenia Nuclear Power Plant (ANPP) Operator Training
Simulator upgrade, which was awarded by the U.S. DOE in September 2019. Phase 2
includes a significant technology transfer effort to support ANPP and ARMATOM
staff in developing the logic models, Electrical and other BOP models, and
Instructor Station soft panel graphics using WSC's 3KEYMASTER Graphical
Engineering Station and modeling tools. This effort will provide ANPP with a
full-scope high-fidelity training simulator, which is required by the local
nuclear regulatory authority to extend their operating license. Phase 1 of the
upgrade was completed in October 2019 and involved replacing an old Unix-based
part-scope simulator with WSC's modern Windows-based 3KEYMASTER Simulation
Environment and modeling tools, as well as providing new thermal hydraulic
models for the Reactor, Main Steam, and Feed Water Systems.
