Title: Thermal Power and Residual Radiation After Shutdown of Nuclear Reactors. Calculation of the Sources, Range of Measurements Required, and Thickness of the Lead for the Detectors; PUISSANCE THERMIQUE ET RAYONNEMENTS RESIDUELS APRES ARRET DANS LES REACTEURS NUCLEAIRES. CALCUL DES SOURCES, ETENDUE DE MESURES SOUHAITABLES ET EPAISSEUR DE PLOMB POUR LES DETECTEURS

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4072604

Curves and formulas are presented for determining residual powers, relative levels of spontaneous fission, and the lead shielding for ionization chambers used for power measurements. The importance of artificial neutron sources is indicated, and a method for calculating these sources is given. (D.C.W.)
