Description

The topics covered by this Coordinated Research Project (CRP) directly support the overall objectives to enhance the safety of research reactors through promotion of the use in safety analysis of computational tools validated against experimental data and to enhance knowledge sharing. The CRP supports the research reactor modernization and innovation by collecting and sharing relevant information. In the present document a short description of three reactors is given and experimental and calculated data are presented and compared. The analyzed reactors are: ⎯ Canada McMaster Reactor (MNR). ⎯ Egyptian Testing Research Reactor-2 (ETRR-2). ⎯ Open Pool Australian Light water Reactor (OPAL).
