REACTOR RECIRCULATION FLOW RATE CONTROL DEVICE

A nuclear reactor power monitoring system for monitoring the power level of a reactor and preventing an excessive rise thereof attributable to a transient increase in the core coolant flow rate before the reactor is scrammed. The system include an operating region monitor (ORM) for blocking the incr...

More Information
Summary:A nuclear reactor power monitoring system for monitoring the power level of a reactor and preventing an excessive rise thereof attributable to a transient increase in the core coolant flow rate before the reactor is scrammed. The system include an operating region monitor (ORM) for blocking the increase in the core coolant flow rate or running-back the flow rate when the power level exceeds a predetermined coolant block threshold power level which is a function of the core coolant flow rate.
