Neural network calibration of moderator temperature coefficient measurements in pressurized water nuclear reactors

<p>Neural networks have been shown to be capable of predicting the moderator temperature coefficient in a nuc1ear reactor by using the frequency response functions between the in-core neutron flux signal and the ex-core thermocouple signal as inputs. In this work, actual data from a nuc1ear re...
