FAILED FUEL ELEMENT DETECTION AND LOCATION SYSTEM ANALYSIS AND DESCRIPTION, CAROLINAS-VIRGINIA TUBE REACTOR
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4842318
The failed fuel element detection and location system for the Carolinas- Virginia tube reactor is described. Analysis of the system indicates that at least three defective fuel rods existing simultaneously can be located in the pressure tubes of the reactor. A tabulation includes the signal activity present in the effluent from each pressure tube and the background activity in the main coolant for each fission product isotope which emits gamma photons. The calculations are based on the CVTR Reference Design II system parameters. (auth)
