Temperature is measured by thermocouples and pressure is measured by strain gauges. T 1 T T 3 P 3 P 1 P D 1 D D 1 L 1 L L 1 a If the pressure measured by P is half of that measured by P 1, derive the equation that relates the velocity in the second section (v z to the inlet velocity (v z1. Do not neglect the gravitational effect (known as the potential energy per unit volume. Bernoulli s equation: 1 1 P + v + gh z = P + v + gh z = constant 1st section nd section 1 1 P + v + gh = P + v + gh 1 z1 1 z 1 1 v = z ( P P 1 + g( h h 1 + vz1 1/ P from which v = g z + ( h h 1 + vz1 b What is the quantity (Q of the liquid flowing into thend section?

The batteries supplying the input voltage for the sensors are identical. Resistors in the bridges (in kω are R 1 =, R =6, R 3 =5, R 4 =8, R5=4, R 6 =8kΩ. 1/ 1 R 1 R g1 R 4 R g Battery Battery R R 3 R 5 R 6 P 1 sensor P sensor R1=, R=6, R3 =5, R4=8, R5=4, R6=8 Sensor 1 1 R3 R = R + R R + R Sensor 3 g1 1 R6 R5 = R + R R + R 6 g 4 5 input input

The relation between the temperature and the measured voltage across the thermocouple leads has the form: T = Determine the Seebeck coefficient of this thermocouple when the measured voltage is 1m. The Seebeck voltage is given by 1 α1 T 1 ( = α α1 = = 57 3 o m / Δ = Δ, hence = α1 T = α1 ( C (4% The one delayed group form of the reactor kinetics equations is dn ( β = n+ λc dc β n = λc a For < β show that shortly after a reactivity insertion, the reactor power increases according to the Prompt Jump Approximation dn λ n = β Shortly after the reactivity insertion, the solution for the neutron number density can by approximated by the solution of

7 3 (% Short Answers Problem Data Prompt Neutron Lifetime 1-4 seconds Delayed Neutron Fraction.75 Delayed Neutron Decay Constant.8 seconds -1 a Why do thermocouples vary in their range of temperature measurements? ANSWER: Because they are made of different metals and hence they have different Seebeck coefficients b Why may thermocouples need to be connected to Op Amps? ANSWER: Because the output voltage can be small and must be amplified c What is a fiber optic pressure sensor? ANSWER: It is a sensor that a diaphragm that deflects under external applied force causing light intensity to change, thus measures the force/pressure d Where should we measure the flow in a PWR nuclear reactor? ANSWER: In all piping circulating coolants, steam, at the inlets and exits of the pumps e What is a variable area flowmeter? ANSWER: It is a meter that measures the change in the height of a float, which is directly proportional d = Q Δ t/ A to the flow rate ( f What is meant by prompt critical and what challenges does it present for reactor control? ANSWER: The reactor is critical on prompt neutrons alone, with a period on the order of fractions of a second. This implies any control system would have to initial control actions in this same time frame. g What is the basis of the F peak clad temperature limit? ANSWER: This is the threshold temperature for the exothermic metal-water reaction between Zirconium cladding and water h How is a negative fuel temperature coefficient ensured in UO fuels? ANSWER: The negative fuel temperature coefficient is the result of increased parasitic absorption of neutrons in U-38 at elevated temperatures. By utilizing low enrichment (low U-35 content relative to U-38 U in UO fuels, a negative fuel temperature coefficient is ensured.
