Flowrate monitoring in an RBMK process channel on the basis of coolant activity information

A method of determining the coolant flowrate in an RBMK process channel on the basis of activity information is examined. A mathematical model of coolant activation in the RBMK channel and an algorithm for determining the flowrate in the channel with an imprecise flowmeter are described. The results...

Zusammenfassung:A method of determining the coolant flowrate in an RBMK process channel on the basis of activity information is examined. A mathematical model of coolant activation in the RBMK channel and an algorithm for determining the flowrate in the channel with an imprecise flowmeter are described. The results of tests of the computational-measurement system to determine the coolant flowrate in the No. 1 unit of the Kursk nuclear power plant are presented (area of application and error in flowrate determination).
