CRITICALITY EXPERIMENTS WITH NRU RODS AT VARIOUS SPACINGS

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4245989
Rods designed for the 200 Mw research reactor HRU were studied at low power in the heavy-water moderated critical-facility ZEEP. The buckling and the distribution of the thermal neutrons in a cell have been measured for various lattice spacings. NRU lattice constants are deduced from these measurements. The umiform temperature coefficient of reactivity was measured at one spacing. (auth)
