NUC-3510 Nuclear Instrumentation and Control


This course encompasses the principles of operation of various types of instruments in the nuclear industry to measure temperature, pressure, level, flow, position, and radiation. The student will gain a broad range of working knowledge of temperature, pressure, level and flow sensors, position indicators, radiation detectors, and control systems. Component theory and design, system hardware, and integrated operation as applied to commercial nuclear systems will be explored.

Advisory: It is strongly recommended that you do not take any of the Nuclear Engineering Technology and Radiation Protection area of study courses unless your math skills, up to and including derivatives and integrals, are current. Students are responsible for making sure that they have the necessary knowledge.
