Benchmark Consolidated Results Against Experimental Data from ATI-1. Annex IV

Creators

Description

The ATI-1 benchmark analysis, including the reactor specification and experimental data, is documented. It consists of a fuelled experiment conducted at the TRIGA (Training, Research, Isotopes, General Atomics) MARK II reactor of the Atominstitut (ATI) at Technische Universität (TU) Wien. Experimental data were obtained through the analysis by axial gamma ray spectrometry of several irradiated fuel elements (FEs) of known operating history. The measurement purpose was to provide information about fuel composition (e.g. production and depletion of major and minor actinides and fission products) under different irradiation conditions. Additional input data, such as ATI TRIGA reactor core geometry and configuration, in core neutron flux spectra and distributions, reactor operating history are also provided. Two participants (from Austria and Thailand) contributed at the ATI-1 benchmark using Monte Carlo computer codes to model the experiment and calculate data to be compared against experimental values for each scanned fuel element.
