Determination of neutron flux redistribution factors for a typical pressurized water reactor ex-core measurements using Monte Carlo technique

In a typical pressurized water reactor, neutron detectors located outside the reactor core monitor reactor power. In addition, they are also used to measure the reactivity of the control rods. A novel approach to calculate the ex-core neutron detector response in a typical pressurized water reactor...
