Q

How are the Intermediate Range NIs gamma compensated?

A

The gamma rays interact with the gas in both the inner and outer tube. The neutrons only interact with the Boron in the outer tube. The induced voltage from the inner tube is opposed to the voltage from the outer tube, thus sending a reading of only the voltage from neutron interaction.

Q

What is the purpose of RPS?

A

Initiates reactor trip:

  • To prevent fuel damage during an anticipated operational transient
  • Limit core damage for infrequent faults
  • Protect the RCS pressure boundary for limiting faults
