Neutron fields inside containment of a CANDU{reg_sign} 600-PHWR power plant

Journal Article - in OSTI.gov collection Nunes, J.C. ; Waker, A.J. ; Lieskovsky, M. August 1996 - Health Physics

Neutron fields in six locations inside containment of a CANDU {reg_sign} 600-PHWR power plant were characterized using Bonner-sphere spectrometry. Unfolded fluence spectra were used to predict and understand the behavior of a rem meter (a moderator-type dose equivalent survey instrument). The suitability of employing commonly-used sources such as {sup 241}Am-Be for calibrating the rem meter was investigated by calculational means. Results of these calculations suggest that employing a calibration field more representative of the power-plant fields would likely provide more accurate dose equivalents. 29 refs., 6 figs., 6 tabs.

Space-time neutronic analysis of postulated loss-of-coolant accidents in CANDU reactors. [PHWR]

Journal Article - in OSTI.gov collection Luxat, J.C. ; Frescura, G.M. December 1979 - Nucl. Technol.; (United States)

Space-time neutronic behavior of CANDU reactors is of importance in the analysis and design of reactor safety systems. A methodology has been developed for simulating CANDU space-time neutronics with application to the analysis of postulated loss-of-coolant accidents. The approach involves the efficient use of a set of computer codes that provides a capability to perform simulations ranging from detailed, accurate three-dimensional space-time to low-cost survey calculations using point kinetics with some effective spatial content. A new space-time kinetics code based on a modal expansion approach is described. This code provides an inexpensive and relatively accurate scoping tool for detailed three-dimensionalmore » space-time simulations.« less
SOPHT: a computer model for CANDU-PHWR heat transport works and their control

Journal Article - in OSTI.gov collection Chang, C.Y.F. ; Skears, J. October 1977 - Nucl. Technol.; (United States)

A digital computer simulation program, SOPHT, was developed by the Nuclear Generation Division of Ontario Hydro to assist their operating staff to ensure safe, reliable, and economic power generation. The program is used to predict the transient performance for Canadian deuterium uranium pressurized heavy water reactor (CANDU-PHWR) heat transport and steam supply networks together with their associated control systems. The model was verified by test data obtained in an operating plant. Examples are used to review and demonstrate the applications and contributions of this simulation program to plant operations.
