Summary
The student will be able to explain the principles of measurement and monitoring of operational variables in a nuclear power plant and describe the role of sensors in equipment diagnostics. They will be able to characterize the physical principles, design, and behavior of various types of sensors under demanding operating conditions, including optical sensors, and explain methods for processing and evaluating measured signals. The student will also be able to describe the principles of ionizing radiation measurement and the basics of dosimetry, including the use of personal dosimeters and radiation monitoring systems. At the same time, they will be able to design a simple measurement chain, perform its basic calibration, and analyze measured data in order to diagnose the condition of equipment in a nuclear power plant.
