French

Domaine(s)
  • Physique atomique

CONT

[...] le poison soluble à teneur ajustable à la demande, qui permet de piloter le réacteur électrogène en régime établi toutes barres sorties, est si possible évité en propulsion navale. Dès lors, les absorbants de contrôle de la réactivité créent nécessairement des hétérogénéités d’autant plus marquées que certains absorbants doivent rester entièrement insérés dans le cœur.
