Description

For several years, gamma thermometer rods bearing several sensors have been installed experimentally in some French reactors. Their purpose is to supplement present fission chambers. The signals delivered by the gamma thermometers indicate the power supplied locally by the fuel. Eight gamma thermometer rods installed at the CRUAS-2 power station are presently subject to regular readings and computations (sensitivity, response time) which indicate the existence of drift phenomena and parasitic noises which are presently under study
