Self-limiting transients in heavy water moderated reactors
- 1. Australian Atomic Energy Commission, Lucas Heights, New South Wales (Australia). Lucas Heights Research Lab.
Description
A brief description is provided of the methods and models for reactivity transient calculations in heavy water moderated research reactors as a supplement to the heavy water reactor benchmark problem discussed in IAEA-TECDOC-324. These methods and models were validated by comparison with experimental transient data from the SPERT II BD22/24 heavy water moderated core. Experimental and calculated transient parameters for this core are compared. (author). 7 refs, 4 figs, 1 tab
