Determination for threshold value of failed fuel element detection in HFETR

Creators

Description

In HFETR, the measurement of delayed neutron and γ-ray is taken as a method of failed fuel element detection. This paper describes the failing test of the fuel element cladding, the release way for fission products from failed fuel and the calculation of its activity in reactor coolant and provides a lot of monitor data about coolant activities under the normal operation. According to the analysis mentioned above, the detection threshold of failed fuel element is determinated, which has been used in the monitor
