چکیده

The National Center for Energy, Sciences and Nuclear Techniques (CNESTEN)’s Training Research Isotope Production General Atomics (TRIGA) Mark II is a pool-type light water moderated cooled research reactor operating at maximum steady state thermal power of 2 MW. was designed to be used as training facility operators, neutron activation analysis, isotopes production, implementing different physics experiments. This article deals with the numerical experimental characterization reaction rates (RRs) in irradiation channels inside CNESTEN’s TRIGA reactor, located Rabat/Morocco. main objective this study validate calculated RRs against measured ones prove that new TRIPOLI-4 model capable reproduce quantities. Therefore, measurements were carried out using technique gamma spectrometry measurements. Preliminary simulations performed transport Monte Carlo code establish design set up foils selected known characteristics irradiated, levels, facilities reactor. resulting activities evaluated via $\gamma $ Normalized compared, good agreement shown most nuclides, which indicates detailed can accurately predict relative values. Further work ongoing analyze absolute RR values, well carry other channels.

Accident scenarios of the TRIGA Mark II reactor in Vienna

The safety report of the TRIGAMark II reactor in Vienna includes three accident scenarios and their deterministic dose consequences to the environment. The destruction of the cladding of the most activated fuel element, the destruction of all fuel elements and a plane crash were considered scenarios in that report. The calculations were made in 1978 with the software program named STRISK. In th...

Serpent-2 Reactor Model Validation at the Vienna Triga Mark Ii Reactor

The Vienna TRIGA Mark II reactor was modelled by means of the Serpent-2 Monte Carlo burnup calculation code. The purpose of the modelling is the determination of core critical parameters and of nuclear fuel composition time evolution. This paper presents the Serpent-2 reactor model validation process carried out during the last year. Taking into account the irradiation history, the fuel composi...
