Abstract
Magnetic amplifiers are suitable for use as amplifying elements in the main temperature control loops of nuclear power reactors. The control problems encountered are discussed and a basic temperature controller and three practical designs based on this controller are de scribed. An indication of the expected reliability of these systems is given, based on experience with similar amplifiers in aircraft applications.
