Neutron noise induced by propagating disturbances in VVER-type reactor core is addressed
in this paper. The spatial discretization of the governing equations is based on the box …

The accurate measurement of mass flow rates is important in nuclear power plants. Flow
meters have been invented and widely applied in several industries; however, the operating …

The transit time of a thermal signal traveling along with a liquid flow can be obtained using a
cross-correlation method. This transit-time-based flowmeter using thermocouples with …

This paper presents a validation exercise for a natural circulation cooled, light-water
moderated and cooled pool-type reactor system. Measurements were performed in the 100 …

В книге в систематическом виде изложены теоретические основы нейтронно-шумового
анализа активных зон ВВЭР. Основное внимание сосредоточено на выявлении …

In the harsh environment present in nuclear reactors, due to degradation caused by
corrosion and/or erosion, the available nonintrusive flow rate measurement devices are …

Monte Carlo simulations of the void velocity measurement in a light-water moderated critical
assembly CROCUS are performed using a continuous energy Monte Carlo code that has a …

Permanent magnet sodium flowmeters (PMSFs) have been widely used to measure the
sodium flow. However, due to the effects of irradiation, thermal cycling, time lapse, etc., the …

The possibility of measuring the gas-phase velocity in a two-phase mixture through the use
of neutron noise techniques is demonstrated in the zero-power reactor CROCUS of the …

Abstract Analysis of thermal–hydraulics fluctuations in pressurized water reactors (eg, local
and global temperature or density fluctuations, as well as primary and charging pumps …
