Extended set of activation monitors for NCT beam characterization and spectral conditions of the beam after reactor fuel conversion
Result description
Since 2010 the LVR-15 reactor has been gradually converted from highly enriched fuel (36 wt% U-235) to low enriched fuel with the enrichment of 19.75 wt% U-235. Paper presents influence of the core pattern changes on the neutron characteristics of the epithermal beam. The determination of neutron spectrum free in the beam was done with a set of neutron activation monitors. After the reactor conversion the change in neutron spectrum is not provable as differences are in the range of measurement errors.
