چکیده

This paper presents an algorithm for numerical simulations of nonsteady states of the TRIGA MARK II reactor in Vienna, Austria. The primary focus of this work has been the development of an algorithm which provides time series of integral neutron flux after reactivity changes introduced by perturbations without the usage of thermal-hydraulic / neutronic numerical code systems for the TRIGA reactor in Vienna, Austria. The algorithm presented takes into account both external reactivity changes as well as internal reactivity changes caused by feedback mechanisms like effects caused by temperature changes of the fuel and poisoning effects. The resulting time series have been compared to experimental results.

Modeling a TRIGA Mark II Biological Shield using MCNP5

The 250kW TRIGA Mark II research reactor, Vienna, is equipped with experimental facilities inside and outside the reactor core. Outside the core, there are four beam tubes (three radial and one tangential beam tube), a thermal column and a neutron radiography collimator, supplying neutrons for irradiation experiments. These experiments include neutron radiography, neutron tomography, neutron ac...

In-situ gamma spectrometry measurements of time-dependent Xenon-135 inventory in the TRIGA Mark II reactor Vienna

In this work, it has been shown that the time dependent Xe inventory in the TRIGA Mark II reactor in Vienna, Austria can be measured via gamma spectrometry even in the presence of strong background radiation. It is focussing on the measurement of (but not limited to) the nuclide Xe. The time dependent Xe inventory of the TRIGA Mark II reactor Vienna has been measured using a temporary beam line...
