Development of RBMK in-reactor control

The most important component of reliable and safe operation of a nuclear reactor is controlling its distributed and general parameters. Different in-reactor control systems used previously and currently in NPP with RBMK are examined. The means for controlling the power release in the reactor core ar...

Description
Summary:The most important component of reliable and safe operation of a nuclear reactor is controlling its distributed and general parameters. Different in-reactor control systems used previously and currently in NPP with RBMK are examined. The means for controlling the power release in the reactor core are examined and the methods for reconstructing the power release in RBMK are reviewed briefly.
