Path forward in Gen-IV neutronic experiments at LR-0 reactor
Original language description
Research at LR-0 reactor is focused on benchmark experiments related to reactors belonging into fourth generation. These experiments are aimed mainly at determination and benchmarking of criticality. Critical benchmarks are then submitted into international database which is operated under auspices of IRPhE (International Reactor Physics Experiment Evaluation) Project of OECD NEA databank. Experimental database broadening helps to validations of codes as well as nuclear data used for design and calculations of GEN-IV reactors. This paper summarizes the past and recent benchmark efforts applied to materials as graphite (Gas Cooled High Temperature Reactor), fluoride salts (Molten Salt Reactor), and lead (Lead Fast Reactor). Performed experiments are modelled in MCNP6.1 code with usage of different nuclear data libraries. Results of criticality measurements are then compared with calculations in form of C/E-1, where possible discrepancies become more apparent. Results show that the benchmark models accurately represent the experiments, where the most of the cases are in 1uncertainty interval. No apparent trend was found in results of calculations among experiments and calculations, but the models of fluorinated compounds are best represented by CENDL- 3.1 data library.
