Unfolded ANO-1 fluxes using the LEPRICON methodology. [Least-squares EPRI CONsolidation]
Calculated fluxes at a one-quarter depth midplane location in the pressure vessel of the ANO-1 reactor were adjusted using the LEPRICON methodology. The adjustment was based on the LEPRICON benchmark database in combination with the ANO-1 cavity activation measurements. The LEPRICON database has been expanded and now also includes the PSF field, of which the analysis has been recently completed. The measured, calculated and adjusted ANO-1 activations are presented together with their corresponding uncertainties. However, the main purpose of this work is to obtain more credible flux values in the pressure vessel. The pressure-vessel flux adjustments and the reduction in the pressure vessel flux uncertainties are elaborated on in the concluding section.
