2 Reactor core and pressure vessel of BWR Fuel rod Fuel assembly Reactor vessel :15~22cm thickness of steel, height of 21m, diameter of 7m Steam dryer Pressure vessel Main steam tube Core Steam separator Feedwater supply tube Fuel clad Fuel pellet Reactor core Control rod Water from recirculation pump Jet pump Recirculation pump 400~800 fuel assemblies are loaded in a reactor core. Control rod driving mechanism 2

4 NIS of BWR Unlike NIS of PWR, ex-core neutron detectors are NOT used in BWRs. - Pressure vessels of BWRs are much larger than those of PWRs. - As neutron detectors are short sight, they can only observe neutron flux in their neighboring regions. - Neutron couplings between core regions are weak, and therefore power distribution can be regionally independent. Examples of RPV diameter Oh-i unit-1 (PWR, 1175MWe): 4.4 m Kashiwazaki-kariwa unit-1 (BWR, 1100MWe): 6.4 m 4
5 Fuel assemblies of PWR and BWR BWR PWR
6 NIS of BWR In-core neutron detectors are used in BWRs as NIS. SRM: Source range monitor IRM: Intermediate range monitor PRM: Power range monitor TIP: Traversing in-core probe (for calibration) SRNR: Start-up range neutron monitor (wide range monitor) Measurement regions covered by these monitors are almost the same as those of PWR NIS. 6
7 Positions of neutron detectors Maki BWR power plant (2,436[MWt]) Local power range monitor (LPRM): 124 (31 x 4 axial positions) Intermediate range monitor (IRM): 8 Source range monitor (SRM): 4 Neutron source (NS): 5 + Control rod (CD): 137 7
8 Average power range monitor (APRM) LPRMs are combined into some groups, eg., 6 groups. Averaged value of LPRM signals belonging to the same group is given as a signal of APRM of that group. LPRMs in the respective groups are selected to measure power level correctly over the entire reactor region. Example of the same APRM group 8
9 NIS of BWR Detector types of neutron monitors Measurement Range Source range Intermediate power range Power range Detector type Movable fission chamber Movable fission chamber Miniature fission chamber Signal mode Pulse mode Campbell (*MSV) mode Current mode *MSV (the Mean Square Voltage) mode : The mean square voltage of signal is proportional to neutron flux level. 9
10 Reactor vessel SRM and IRM (movable detector) Upper support plate Detector (SRM or IRM) Core support plate - SRM and IRM are located at prescribed positions in the guide tubes by the detector driving mechanism when they are used. - When out of service, they are moved in a position under the core support plate. Detector driving mechanism controller Detector driving mechanism Record & surveillance system Containment vessel penetration 10
11 Four LPRM positions in a guide tube Upper support plate LPRM position D LPRM position C LPRM position B Guide tube for movable detector *TIP can be inserted with a driving mechanism. LPRM position A Core support plate Signal cable Reactor vessel 111
12 In-core miniature fission chamber for PRM Active materials >90% 235 U, U 3 O 8 (or 90% 234 U-10% 235 U) Active length 25.4 mm Detector diameter 6.3 mm Ionization gas Ar gas Applied voltage 75~175 V Coaxial cable Power & signal cable Casing (cathode) Plate coated with 235 U Anode Insulation(eg. Al 2 O 3 ) 12
13 In-core miniature fission chamber for PRM Sensitivity of 235 U fission chamber (FC) becomes small during thermal neutron irradiation. (Example) One year irradiation with the thermal neutron flux of [n cm -2 s -1 ] The sensitivity reduces by about 20%. Relative sensitivity Q3. Answer how to solve this problem? U n U U Measurements with 235 U FCs must be properly corrected with the change of sensitivity Total thermal neutron irradiation (10 21 n cm -2 ) 13
