Abstract
Monitoring  and  diagnosing  system  (MDS)  proposed  by  the  IPPE  is  aimed  at  the monitoring and diagnosis of SVBR-100 reactor components condition and forecasting processes in the reactor under normal operation. The main MDS functions include d etection of deposits formation in the steam generator, steam or gas ingress into the core, calculation of neutronics and thermal p arameters of the core, and monitoring of the core elements condition, reactor systems integrity, and vibration load on the components. Besides, MDS creates the archive of data on condition of the reactor components, provides data exchange with the technological processes automatic control system of the power unit and  makes  diagnosis  of its  own hardware and  software.  In  the  report,  MDS  functional structure is discussed, as well as technical opportunities and problems of MDS development on the basis of earlier designed NPP diagnosing systems. 
Keywords
