Description

Full text: The calculation of initial core criticality of Thai Research Reactor-1/Modification 1 was performed by the continuous energy Monte Carlo Code MVP and the material cross-sections from JENDL-3.3 continuous-energy library. After that gemstone irradiation facility model were extended for calculation on the magnitude of the reactivity loss. The results showed that total reactivity worth of the control system was 10.83. The reactivity effects associated with the insertion of gemstone irradiation facility was about -0.43% δk/k
