Reactivity is a key parameter in nuclear power plants (NPPs). It reflects the balance between
neutron generation and consumption inside the reactor core. Therefore, reactivity monitoring …

Many light-water reactors use self-powered neutron detectors (SPNDs) to monitor neutron
flux. Some SPNDs suffer from delayed response. To compensate for this inherent delay …

In large nuclear reactors such as the Advanced Heavy Water Reactor (AHWR), the core
neutron flux distribution needs to be continuously monitored and displayed to the operator …

Self-powered neutron detectors are common sensory devices for flux map** purposes in
nuclear reactors. A Kalman filtering strategy has been explored in this work to overcome the …

Abstract Co Self-Powered Neutron Detector (SPND) is confronted with the problem of
material consumption, which causes the response current can neither reflect the change of …

A 3D on-line power-distribution monitoring system NECP-ONION has been developed and
validated in this paper. It includes plant data processing, core calculation and on-line power …

This book presents a guideline for EWMA filter design for industrial wireless networked
control system, both theoretically and practically. The filter's key advantages are simple …

Field programmable gate array (FPGA)-based systems are thought to be a practical option to
replace certain obsolete instrumentation and control systems in nuclear power plants. An …

These investigation findings prove the possibility of a engineering solution for VVER core
automatic protection during operation in both nominal and transient conditions within ICIS …

In a nuclear reactor, eg Advanced Heavy Water Reactor, a large number of neutron flux
detectors are used for measurement of core flux based on which different monitoring, control …
