Hardware-Software Complexes for Recording the Neutronic Parameters of Nuclear Research Installations

Аннотация

Approaches to designing measurement complexes as a collection of software and hardware using methods developed at the All-Russia Research Institute of Experimental Physics (VNIIEF) for recording the neutronic parameters of nuclear research installations are examined for the example of latest advancements: specialized multifunctional measuring complex SMIK and the implementation variant SMIK-MER. The developed systems function autonomously or are built into other automated systems. The complexes are organized in accord with a block-modular principle with a single center processing the recorded signals and are easily adapted for particular nuclear facilities. The hardware part of the complexes comprises a set of certified counting and current-measuring channels. The control software determines the functional purpose of the complexes.
