The purpose of this work is to present a monitoring system based on analytical redundancy and directional residual generation using measurements obtained during the refueling process. In short this problem consists of building an unknown input observer with the role to estimate the friction force produced by the interaction between the wall of the fuel channel and the fuel assembly supporting brushes. This let to estimate the shape of the graphite bricks that comprise the core and, therefore, monitor any distortion of them. The theoretical machinery exploited in this work is the Kalman filter theory, which is used to estimate the information above mentioned.
