Abstract

An auxiliary feedwater valve control apparatus of a steam generator that operates an auxiliary feedwater valve in an auxiliary feed water system provided as a protective system of a main feed water system that feeds secondary cooling water to a steam generator, includes a water-level detection means that detects a water level of secondary cooling water in the steam generator, a water-level-deviation calculation means that calculates a deviation between a preset target water level and a water level detected by the water-level detection means, a valve-operation setting means that sets an aperture of the auxiliary feedwater valve corresponding to a deviation of the water level, and a valve drive means that outputs a signal for driving the auxiliary feedwater valve corresponding to setting by the valve-operation setting means.
