High enrichment to low enrichment core's conversion. Accidents analysis
Description
This work analyzes the different accidents that may occur in the reactor's facility after the 20% high-enriched uranium core's conversion. The reactor (of 5 thermal Mw), built in the 50's and 60's, is of the 'swimming pool' type, with light water and fuel elements of the curve plates MTR type, enriched at 93.15 %. This analysis includes: a) accidents by reactivity insertion; b) accidents by coolant loss; c) analysis by flow loss and d) fission products release. (Author)

El presente trabajo analiza los distintos accidentes que pueden darse en la instalacion del reactor despues de la conversion del nucleo HEU al 20%. El reactor (de 5 Mw termicos), construido en las decadas del '50-'60 es de tipo 'swimming pool', con agua liviana y elementos combustibles tipo MTR de placas curvas, enriquecidos al 93,15%. Este analisis incluye: a) accidentes por insercion de reactividad; b) accidentes por perdida de refrigerante; c) accidentes por transitorios de caudal y d) liberacion de productos de fision.
