Abstract

To solve the reactor loading pattern optimization problem in realistic nuclear power plants,this paper presents a new optimization method-Interval Bound Algorithm,and introduces the origin of the algorithm and describes its implementation procedure.Based on this algorithm,the corresponding parallel loading pattern optimization code of IBALPO is developed using Fortran95.Finally,this code system is used to solve a realistic and difficult reload problem to show its performance,and a better pattern is obtained compared to the one searched by experienced engineers.
