Analysis of proposed PFBR shield experiment in Apsara

  • 1. Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research, Kalpakkam (India). Reactor Physics Division

Description

In the proposed Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor(PFBR) shield experiment in Apsara, it is proposed to use a Al box filled with air to reduce thermalization of neutrons leaking out of core. Air to water worth of this air column has been estimated by 3-D transport calculations. The worth is nearly zero. (author). 2 refs., 1 fig., 1 tab
