Rebus-PWR. International programme at the VENUS critical facility

Description

The main objective of the REBUS-PWR programme is to establish an experimental benchmark database for validation of reactor physics codes, for the calculation of the loss of reactivity due to burnup for PWR (and BWR) fuel both for UO2 and MOX fuel bundles. In June 2003, an irradiated BR3 MOX bundle was loaded in the VENUS reactor. A complete experimental programme associated with this first irradiated configuration was successfully completed
