CONTROL DEVICE FOR NUCLEAR REACTORS
In a nuclear reactor having a plurality of control rods, the movement of these rods is controlled by electric motor fed by a low frequency alternating current generator. Switching means are provided to connect the said motors, when required, to the generator. On the one hand the rods may be moved in pairs successively and the movement can be regulated so that a given pair is set in motion when the preceding pair has reached a predetermined stage in its movement, e.g., the end of the traverse or half way, in such a manner that the movement of the succeeding pair begins when the run of the preceding pair is terminated or when its half run is terminated. The rods may also be grouped other than in pairs. On the other hand all the motors may be connected at the same time to the generator voltage. (NPO)
