Description

The Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) has been developing a system-integrated modular advanced reactor for a seawater desalination and electricity generation with a 330MW thermal power. A study is being processed for the design of an Ex-Core Neutron Flux Monitoring System (ENFMS) of SMART with an integrated wide range fission chamber and has found several technical problems to be solved in installing the Ex-Core detector caused by the integral reactor type. This paper describes the technology of ENFMS applied in commercial Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs) and discusses the characteristics of various detectors. In addition, it will be expected that this study provides valuable information as basic data for the design of ENRMS of SMART
