Calculated spectral fluences and dosimeter activities for the metallurgical blind test irradiations at the ORR-PSF

  • 1. Oak Ridge National Lab., TN (USA)

Description

Fluence rate, fluence, and activity calculations were performed for each of the three exposures (two surveillance capsules and a pressure vessel capsule) performed during the two-year metallurgical blind test experiment at the ORR-Poolside Facility in Oak Ridge. Motivation for these calculations was prompted by differences of up to 25% between dosimetry measurements performed in the earlier startup scoping experiment and the two-year experiment. The calculations validate the trend of the measurements in both the startup and the two-year experiments, and confirm the presence of a significant cycle-to-cycle variation in the core leakage.
