Abstract :
In this paper, the stability-equation method is applied to the analysis of a nuclear reactor control system with multiple transport-lags and an asymmetrical nonlinearity. The characteristics of limit-cycles can be defined easily, and the effects of adjustable parameters can be realized directly. Based upon the presented analyses, the considered system has asymmetrical oscillation. These are checked by computer simulations.
