Modernisation of the WCZV large research infrastructure - The VR-1 Nuclear Experimental Hub

Project goals

The aim of the project is to upgrade a large research infrastructure - the VR-1 Nuclear Experimental Hub (WCZV), which was established in 2011 at the VR-1 training reactor. The infrastructure has been gradually expanded to include two nuclear reactors (VR-1 training reactor and VR-2 subcritical reactor) and seven specialised nuclear laboratories. Upgrades are primarily focused on the key components of the VR-1 reactor and laboratory equipment, i.e. the reactor I&C system, the radiation monitoring system of the reactor and nuclear laboratories, and upgrades of the equipment in the neutron source and detector laboratory.

    Modernizace velké výzkumné infrastruktury - Jaderné experimentální centrum VR-1

  • Annotation in Czech

    Cílem projektu je modernizace velké výzkumné infrastruktury – Jaderné experimentální centrum VR-1 (WCZV), která vznikla v roce 2011 na pracovišti školního reaktoru VR-1. Postupně byla infrastruktura rozšiřována tak, že v současné podobě zahrnuje dva jaderné reaktory (školní reaktor VR-1 a podkritický reaktor VR-2) a sedm specializovaných jaderných laboratoří. Modernizace je především zaměřena na klíčové komponenty reaktoru VR-1, tj. systém kontroly a řízení reaktoru, dále pak na radiační monitorovací systém reaktoru a souvisejících laboratoří a modernizace vybavení laboratoře neutronových zdrojů a detektorů.
