The control of nuclear reactor operation during instationary operating states is connected with high demands to process control in order to guarantee nuclear safety every time. Especially during start-up, a dynamic nonlinear process with power changes over several decades, the restriction of the reactor period is to be observed. In this connection problems of time-optimality have to be solved. Based on the point-kinetic equations an inverse reactor model has been derived. It permits to calculate such a control variable, the reactivity ς , which produces the wanted period T as the reactor output signal. By means of this inverse model a reactor period controller with a superposed power controller has been developed and realized by a microcomputer. The experiments with the zero-power reactor RAKE show that the controller is able to control both the reactor period and the power.
