Test reactor physics effects on fuel motion diagnostic data interpretation

Creators

  • 1. Los Alamos National Laboratory, NM (USA)

Description

Time-dependent core physics effects in the Transient Reactor Test Facility (TREAT) are shown to interfere with the interpretation of fuel motion diagnostic data. In particular, data from a ''constant power'' test indicate large ( > 15% test pin signal changes relative to the reactor instrumentation readings. This effect is attributed mainly to transient control rod relocations
