Reactor Power Distribution Calculation in Research Reactors Using MCNP
In reactor calculations, a detailed 3-D power density distribution is required for core optimization studies and safety analyses. The general Monte Carlo based neutral particle transport tool, MCNP [1], has the capability to obtain detailed power density distribution in a reactor through its criticality calculation mode (KCODE mode). However, there is no standard tally type in MCNP that is able...
متن کاملModeling the measurement of VVER-1000 reactor power by neutron and gamma radiation with MCNP code
The present study deals with a new method for measuring the power of a reactor. This method uses gamma and neutron radiation resulted from the entire reactor structure, without changing its structure (online). In terms of functionality, this method can measure the reactor power in real-time and report it instantly. In order to obtain the relationship between reactor power and gamma and neutron ...
متن کاملNeutrons and Gamma-Ray Dose Calculations in Subcritical Reactor Facility Using MCNP
In nuclear experimental, training and teaching laboratories such as a subcritical reactor facility, huge measures of external radiation doses could be caused by neutron and gamma radiation. It becomes imperative to place the health and safety of staff and students in the reactor facility under proper scrutiny. The protection of these individuals against ionization radiation is facilitated by ex...
متن کاملEstimation of neutron and gamma dose in the MNSR research reactor
In this study, the neutron and gamma doses in the dry channel and in the internal irradiation site of the Miniature Neutron Source research reactor (MNSR) has been calculated and measured. The MNSR reactor is a light water reactor with a maximum power of 30 kW and equipped with various irradiation facilities, including five irradiated sites, five irradiation sites and a dry channel. The interna...
متن کاملAn Exact MCNP Modeling of Pebble Bed Reactors
Double heterogeneity of randomly located pebbles in the core and Coated Fuel Particles (CFPs) in the pebbles are specific features in pebble bed reactors and usually, because of difficulty to model with MCNP code capabilities, are neglected. In this study, characteristics of HTR-10, Tsinghua University research reactor, are used and not only double heterogeneous but also truncated CFPs and Pebb...
