Comparison Radiography and Tomography Possibilities of FRM-II (20MW) and Budapest (10MW) Research Reactor
نویسندگان
چکیده
In November of 2005 a measurement series was conducted on different kinds of reference objects to compare the results of the FRM-II (ANTARES) and the Budapest (Radiography Station) research reactor in the field of neutron radiography, gamma radiography, classical tomography and discrete tomography by an ANDOR CCD camera and Imaging plate with BAS 2500 Scanner (contributed by AIDA software).

Pipe corrosion and deposit study using neutron- and gamma- radiation sources
The problems of corrosion and deposit are crucial issues in the pipelines of the chemical, nuclear and petrochemical industries. Radiography (neutron, gamma, X-ray) has long been used as a technique for pipe inspection and corrosion monitoring. The 10MW Budapest research reactor site is a source of various energy neutron (thermal and epithermal) and gamma radiation. The detector system was a Pe...
متن کاملStudy of the Inner Structure of a Damaged Control Rod by Neutron and X-Ray Radiography and Discrete Tomography
A control rod K5 of the 10 MW Budapest Research Reactor was damaged in 2004. We have applied both neutron and X-ray radiography to study the distribution of the residual material in the damaged K5. X-ray radiography visualized the main distribution of the residual materials, like different kinds of B4C and water, and the frozen gas bubbles, while neutron radiography displayed the fine structure...

Neutron and X-ray Tomography in Non-Destructive Testing (NDT): A new complex neutron-, gamma-, and X-ray three-dimensional computer tomography system suitable for experimental and industrial applications has been built at 10-MW Budapest research reactor site. A number of objects were investigated and tomographic projections were made. We study the optimal preprocessing steps and the optimal ...
متن کاملThe Conversion of Research Reactors to Low-Enriched Fuel and the Case of the FRM-II
The use of highly enriched uranium (HEU) as fuel in research reactors runs contrary to the concept of proliferation-resistant nuclear technologies. Consequently, for more than two decades, international activities have been undertaken to terminate the use of HEU in research reactors by supporting the conversion of these facilities to low-enriched uranium (LEU). Achievements, setbacks and perspe...
متن کاملNeutron-, gamma- and X-ray three-dimensional computed tomography at the Budapest research reactor site
A new complex, neutron-, gammaand X-ray three-dimensional computer tomography system suitable for experimental and industrial applications has been built at the 10-MW Budapest research reactor site. After the system was installed, a number of objects were investigated and tomographic projections were made. The evaluation relied on two reconstruction approaches. One of these is the classical, fi...
