The Log Count Rate Period Meter Used with Safety Circuits
Journal Article
·
· IRE Transactions on Nuclear Science
Equations are presented that give the probable rate of spurious reactor scrams due to counter noise in the period circuits commonly used at low reactor power. It is shown how a filter introduced to reduce the spurious scram rate, will delay the circuit response in the case of true emergencies. A numerical example shows that a compromise can be reached that gives a very satisfactory circuit.
