Definitions
- the detectors Upon exiting the sodium separator the detectors are conveyed to a parallel arrangement of storage conduits 28 in accordance with the original columnar array formed within the reactor. Once filled, the columns 28 are sequentially emptied past radiation counter 36 which records the detector readings indicative of the power measurement.
- the connecting conduits 37, 39 and 21 are coupled by the corresponding valves 38, 40 and 27 to return the detectors exiting the counter to the appropriate storage columns 28. This process is repeated until each of the storage columns 28 has been counted.
- the aforementioned counting process is repeated to provide a determination of the breeding measurement.
- the detectors Upon exiting the counter 36 the detectors are routed to their respective initial storage conduits 2 in accordance with the original array formed within the reactor 5. Storage conduits 2 function as a decay reservoir to enable an adequate period for radioactive decay so that the process may be repeated to supply successive breeding and power determinations.
