Abstract The timely recognition and accurate classification of emergency situations is an important task for nuclear plant operators. The Reactor Emergency Action Level Monitor (REALM) expert system was developed to provide advice to operators during emergency situations. A technique for filtering plant sensor data was developed for REALM and is broadly applicable to power plant monitoring tasks. Innovative computer architecture and verification and validation methods were developed during a research program to implement REALM at Con Edison’s Indian Point 2 nuclear plant.

An embedded based power plant system is used for checking the environmental condition based on different sensor. The microcontroller is fixed inside the boiler which is a turbine, to monitor the status and the information is passed through GSM. In this project we proposed the main water tank supplies number of boilers. The water level is controlled by a water level sensor, each evaporator has two channels, one is delta other one is outlet and the channels' valves are controlled by some temperature sensors composed in each package. From the GSM modem, the user will get the present status of the boiler level by sending a radiator ID number as message. When the temperature inside the boiler exceed the threshold value it will indicate as a warning to the concerned authority person to take the immediate step.
