Neutron noise measurements on Bugey 2 PWR

  • 1. Societe Franco-Americaine de Constructions Atomiques (FRAMATOME), 92 - Courbevoie (France)

Description

Following Bugey 2 PWR hot functional tests, dimension measurements of internals hold down spring led to suspect that vibration levels could change with time. Neutron noise measurements runs during the first cycle enabled describing vibration behaviour of internals. Comparisons with previous analytical and experimental results gained on the Safran model as well as on similar reactors were also made. (author)
