Abstract
A method of measuring the subcriticality of a reactor, according to which the reactor is transferred from a critical into a subcritical state twice by moving control rods with different velocities V 1 and V 2, is substantiated. A correction to the indications of a reactivity meter for the spatial effect of reactivity is calculated according to detector signals which are recorded with each movement. The correction calculation does not require neutron-physical calculations. As an example this method is applied to water-moderated and -cooled reactors.
