Before a nuclear power plant can return to full power following a refueling outage, low power physics testing is performed to ensure the newly constructed core represents the designed core. In order to help our customers get their units back online, Westinghouse utilizes our Dynamic Rod Worth Measurement (DRWM™) technique to accurately and quickly measure control rod worths.
