[...] un système interne, mesurant le flux neutronique à l'intérieur du cœur, et un système externe placé à l'extérieur de la cuve coexistent. La terminologie habituellement retenue pour nommer les systèmes à partir de trigrammes utilise l'appellation RIC (réacteur instrumentation coeur) pour le premier et RPN (réacteur protection nucléaire) pour le second. Le système RIC mesure la distribution relative en 3D de la puissance à l'intérieur du cœur du réacteur avec une très bonne précision liée à un procédé de mesure interne au réacteur. C'est pourquoi on l'appellera par la suite système de référence. La constante de temps associée n'est pas une exigence forte; elle dépendra de l'architecture du système et de la technologie utilisée. 3, record 1, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20RIC

Flux Thimble Guide Tubes. Flux thimbles are complements of the reactor in-core neutron monitoring or flux-mapping system. They are inserted into the reactor pressure vessel through the bottom... A thimble guide tube is divided into two parts. The upper part is located inside the fuel assembly, while the lower insertion is located between the reactor vessel bottom and the lower core plate. 1, record 2, English, - flux%20thimble%20guide%20tube

Tubes doigt de gant. Ce sont des tubes réalisés en acier inoxydable étirés à froid, sans soudure, livrés à l'état écroui [...] Ils sont insérés à travers la buselure d'étanchéité dans les tubes de guidage; ils subissent donc un cintrage équivalent à celui des tubes de guidage avant de pénétrer dans la cuve (rayon de courbure égal à 2,50 m). Ils sont terminés à leur extrémité supérieure par une ogive soudée et à leur extrémité inférieure, par une pièce en forme de collerette servant de liaison avec la buselure d'étanchéité. 1, record 2, French, - tube%20doigt%20de%20gant
