Abstract
This paper introduces the design of a J-type aeroball system that the tube penetrates the lateral wall of reactor pressurized vessel (RPV), then immediately goes down to the vessel bottom and then goes up through the lower core support plate into the reactor core. Some experimental results related to gas flowing within a thin tube are presented in the paper, such as the gas friction drag coefficient on the ball’s way and etc. From theoretical and experimental viewpoints, the feasibility of the system is proved in pneumatic holding-up and β measurement aspects. In order to ensure an enough ratio of signal to noise, the maximum distance between two measuring points in water reactors is given. The paper gives out the measuring number per two-assemblies width N i =Int( n i /2+0.51), which is the accuracy relation between the number of fuel assembly and the minimum one of measuring point to only reconstruct 2D neutron flux distribution completely by the measured data.
