The analysis of fission products in the Windscale A.G.R. coolant using on-line #betta# spectrometry
Creators
- 1. UKAEA Windscale Nuclear Power Development Labs.
Description
The on-line #betta# spectrometer and associated equipment which was used from 1977 to analyse the radio-active fission products in the WAGR coolant is briefly described. Examples of the measurements obtained are provided, together with their theoretical interpretation. In particular, the effect of pin failure mode on the emissions is considered and a technique is described for deducing the quantity of radio-iodine released at the time of failure from measurement of the xenon daughters.
