Excore detector recalibration using quarter-core flux maps

Description

The use of the quarter-core flux map (QCFM) in place of full-core flux maps for the required quarterly power range excore detector calibration is justified. The QCFM is a new abbreviated method for estimating measured power distributions. It shows a very high degree of accuracy for the core average axial offset parameter. Also presented is recommended power range detector recalibration procedure using quarter-core flux maps
