Participants obtain insight in the design, construction, operation and calibration of a typical reactor instrumentation of a research reactor.
Maximal 3 groups with 6 participants, personal registration at start of semester on the 12 march 14:00, applicants who attended Reaktorphysik 1, Nucklear Engineering 1 or Reaktortechnik 2 will are favoured, test at the end of practical course
Participants will carry out 8 experiments to introduce them into the design and performance of a typical reactor instrumentation. Subjects are general requirements for a reactor instrumentation, neutron flux measurements with ionization chambers, fission chambers, self-powered neutron detectors, redundancy, rod-drop time, temperature measurement in nuclear reactors. Students work in groups of 3-4 and have to prepare a written protocol. A course manual will be handed out at the course registration which takes place on the second Tuesday in March every year at 14:00 at the Atominstitut.
