Best Estimate Power Monitor (BEPM)
The Best Estimate Power Monitor (BEPM), developed by ILD, maximizes nuclear power plant generation while ensuring reactor thermal power limits are maintained within required levels. The ILD BEPM can be used to detecting and monitoring venturi fouling, industry ultra-sonic flowmeter issues and other technical issues that can impact core reactor thermal power.
