Abstract
Process and device for the detecting of faults in the distribution of the power of the core (2) of a pressurized water nuclear reactor, in which at least one parameter representing the power of the core (2) is measured, each parameter being measured at a determined number of points. For each parameter, the difference between the two extreme measured values and the ratio of this difference to the smallest measured value are determined, and this ratio is compared to a set value, a fault being detected if this ratio is greater than the set value. The sensors (4, 9) are arranged symmetrically close to the periphery of the core (2) and a further sensor (9) is placed close to the center of the core (2).
