Reactor protection system conceptual design for Triga Puspati reactor using LabVIEW software

This paper presents a conceptual design for replacing the current Reactor Protection System (RPS) to improve reactor safety and allow the potential implementation of a multi-purpose research reactor. The RPS is a part of the TRIGA PUSPATI Reactor (RTP), which has been operated since 1982. However, R...
