Neutron deep penetration through reactor pressure vessel and biological concrete shield of VVER-1000 Mock-Up in LR-0 reactor

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Evaluation of the neutron fluence values in a reactor pressure vessel together with surveillance specimens programs from reactor pressure vessel materials are among the most important parts of in-service inspection programs that are necessary for realistic and reliable assessment of the RPV's residual lifetime. The neutron fluence values are determined by means of calculation. These calculation results are accompanied by measurements of induced activity of the activation foil placed in capsules behind the reactor pressure vessel at selected locations. These results can be used for neutron flux density adjustment in the corresponding parts of the reactor system. Such information is not complete, because for determination of the radiation damage, the flux on the inner side of reactor pressure vessel has to be known. If the flux attenuation ratio is known, then the neutron flux density on the outer side can be easily recalculated for the inner side. These attenuation factors, applicable to the power reactors, can be determined experimentally in the VVER-1000 Mock-Up placed in the LR-0 reactor. The comparison of experimental results with calculated ones increases the reliability of their estimations. This paper aims to evaluate the measured neutron flux densities at various VVER-1000 Mock-Up positions by means of comparison with the Monte Carlo simulation. The effect of the various nuclear data libraries on the calculation results is also studied.
