Description

The stringent requirements to be satisfied for the accurate measurement of temperature in nuclear reactors of the PWR type are pointed out. Methods and instruments adopted, such as thermocouples, RTD, radiation pyrometers, etc. are described. Effects of radiation on such instruments are discussed. In-core instruments used for fuel element temperature measurement are also described. (K.B.)
