“…In such cases, there is no thermal loop taking part in power controls, like power reactors of Canadian Deuterium Uranium (CANDU) type, PWR and Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) type etc. For small research reactors the idea is to govern the basic neutronics only, as done conventionally by ON-OFF controls of the control rods, looking at only the linear neutron channel signal [37], [38]. But for power reactors unlike research reactors have a loop of thermal-hydraulics and thus control inputs from these parts to affect the reactivity.…”

“…The set-point of the RRS is specified at the desired level, which is called the demand power and the control loop error is corrected by the continuous measurement of the reactor power level or bulk power by the Self-PoweredNeutron-Detectors (SPND). So, the goal of the reactor control system is to minimize the effective power error (EPE) which is the sum of the difference between demand power and bulk power and the difference between their instantaneous rates [20], [21]. The present RRS in operating PHWRs uses proportional controller as described in [20], [21].…”
