Horizontal channel for neutron radiography and tomography in LVR-15 research reactor
Original language description
The LVR-15 reactor is a light water research reactor, which is situated in Nuclear Centre Řež Ltd., Řež near Prague. The reactor operates as a multipurpose facility with maximal thermal power of 10 MW. It has ten horizontal channels. One of them, not used up to now, is prepared for neutron transmission radiography and tomography. The method is based on absorption and scatter of thermal neutrons in the analysed sample. The channel leads neutrons from the reactor core with 3 m long and 100 mm in diametertube. For the neutron radiography, collimated beam of thermal neutrons is necessary to prepare. Around the irradiation box, shielding for gamma and neutron radiation will be used for radiation protection purposes. Measurement of neutron fluence in the beam outlet with free channel is presented. Measurement results are compared with MCNP calculations. Next calculations of neutron fluence and gamma dose rate were made for design of filters inside the channel and shielding around the irradi
