VVER Thermal Power Measured Using the Readings of Rhodium Self-powered Neutron Detector (SPND)

A procedure for determining the linear heat generation rate in a fuel assembly of VVER reactor at the location of a rhodium self-powered neutron detector (SPND) and verification of this procedure are discussed. A method of measurements of the VVER thermal power based on SPND readings is described.
