Abstract
An apparatus may include two or more electrical conductors, one or more signal devices, and an analyzer. The one or more signal devices may be adapted to apply one or more signals to the two or more electrical conductors and receive one or more signals from the two or more electrical conductors. The analyzer may be adapted to determine power level in the nuclear reactor using at least one of the applied signals and at least one of the received signals. A method of determining power level in a nuclear reactor may include: measuring impedance values of two or more electrical conductors disposed in the nuclear reactor and using the measured impedance values to determine the power level. A method of operating a nuclear reactor may include: measuring the impedance values and using the measured impedance values to determine parameters of the nuclear reactor.
