Digital nuclear reactor control rod position indication system
Patent
·
OSTI ID:4087297
A description is given of a digital nuclear reactor control rod position indication system employing a plurality of Hall Effect transducers longitudinally spaced along the control rod drive housing. The transducers are individually responsive to a magnetic field generated by a magnetized portion of the control drive rod to respectively provide an output when in substantial proximity to the magnetized rod portion. The transducer outputs are multiplexed to display the relative position of the control rods within the reactor core. (Official Gazette)
