ABSTRACT:
Thermal monitoring of a reactor core is carried out by utilizng coolant temperatures detected at the outlets of a plurality of fuel assemblies. The mean value of the "hot" and "cold" core outlet temperatures and the difference between these latter are established at each instant. An analog signal corresponding to the temperature difference between the coolant temperature at the outlet of said assembly and the mean core outlet temperature is delivered in respect of each fuel assembly. The signal is processed in order to initiate the appropriate safety actions.
