NAA UNCOMPENSATED IONIZATION CHAMBER TESTS IN SUPO

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4077687
An uncompensated ionization chamber for monitoring reactor power was developed. To obtain chamber response data at a high neutron flux level in a water boiler reactor, the ion chamber and associated electronic equipment were tested in the SUPO reactor. The ion currents obtained at each power level under conditions of complete ion collection are given. The ion currents were a linear function of power. The saturation characteristics revealed the necessary collection voltages. (M.C.G.)
