Abstract
In August of 1993, EPRI initiated a project to perform an evaluation o f;the application of various methodologies for performing Abnormal Con ditions and Events (ACE) analysis on computer systems used in nuclear plants. This paper discusses the application of ACE analysis technique s to two systems designed for the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) Bro wns Ferry Nuclear (BFN) plant. Further details can be obtained from EP RI TR-104595, ''Abnormal Conditions and Events Analysis for Instrument ation and Controls Systems''[1] which is scheduled for publication in December, 1994.
