Experimental investigations of ex-core power control system parameters at nuclear power plants with WWER-1000 type reactors

Description

The ex-core instrumentation system (ECIS) mock-up for monitoring the energy distribution over the core volume is described. The experimental investigation of the ECIS mock-up at the running NPP with the use of a representative amount of the reactor conditions has shown the high accuracy and quick response of the ex-core control method of the power and its distribution in the core volume. The small amount of the detectors, the application of the fast algorithms for signal processing make it possible to control the power distribution in the real time. The algorithms for processing detector readings and the results of the tests are also produced. (author). 5 figs
