Title:
水位計測装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP5802550
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a water level measurement device capable of measuring the level of cooling water in a nuclear reactor without being influenced by an output distribution of a reactor core even if the nuclear reactor stops.SOLUTION: A water level measurement device 10A includes a heat generating body 11 generating heat with gamma rays and installed in a nuclear reactor pressure vessel 2 to have an axis in the height direction of the nuclear reactor; a heater 12 which heats the heat generating body; a plurality of heat insulators 13 which are individually shorter than the heat generating body and installed covering an outer peripheral surface of the heat generating body; a temperature difference measurement part 15 which has a plurality of temperature difference measuring elements 14 measuring a temperature difference between a temperature measurement point T1 and a temperature measurement point T2 set for a heat insulation part surrounded by the heat insulators and an unsurrounded non-heat-insulation part respectively, the temperature measurement points being set at respectively different heights; an axial output distribution measurement part 16 which calculates an axial output distribution of the nuclear reactor on the basis of a plurality of obtained temperature differences; and a water level determination part 17 which determines the water level in the nuclear reactor on the basis of the obtained axial output distribution and the plurality of temperature differences.
