The fission products' gamma-ray and gamma-ray energy source spectra for a gas-cooled fast breeder reactor (GCFR) are calculated for different times after shutdown by modifying the RIBD computer code. The secondary gamma-ray energy source spectrum in the core of a GCFR, from fission, inelastic scattering, and capture reactions, is calculated using a typical GCFR neutron spectrum. The computer code LAPHANO is used to generate the multigroup (n, xγ) neutron-coupled gamma-ray transfer matrix. The weak dependence of capture and inelastic gamma ray source spectrum on the neutron flux spectrum has been noted. The fission products and secondary gamma-ray source spectra obtained can be used to calculate heat generation and refueling shielding requirements, etc. 相似文献

Titanium is contained in lithium titanate which is a tritium breeding material candidate. In the nuclear design, accurate nuclear data are needed. However, few benchmark experiments had been performed for titanium. We performed a benchmark experiment with a titanium assembly and a DT neutron source at JAEA/FNS. The titanium assembly was covered with Li2O blocks in order to reduce background neutrons. Dosimetry reaction rates were measured with niobium, indium and gold foils inside the assembly. And fission rates of 235U were measured by using micro fission chambers. This experiment was analyzed by using the Monte Carlo neutron transport code MCNP5-1.40 with recent nuclear data libraries of ENDF/B-VII.0, ENDF/B-VII.1, JEFF-3.1.2, JENDL-4.0 and JENDL-4.0u1. The calculation results were compared with the measured one in order to validate the nuclear data libraries of titanium. The calculated results with ENDF/B-VII.1 agreed with the measured one the best because the (n,2n) and (n,n′cont) reaction cross section data and resonance parameters were improved. 相似文献

Measurements of the 30 keV isomer production cross-section in 93Nb, excited by neutron inelastic scattering have been made at 10 neutron energies in the range 1–6 MeV. Small foils of niobium and suitable monitor elements were exposed to high fluences of monoenergetic neutrons and the cross-section was determined from the K X-ray activities so induced. The high purity Ge detector used in these X-ray measurements was calibrated against a standard solution of 93mNb which is used as an international reference material for reactor neutron dosimetry. The neutron fluence of the irradiation was measured with a low-efficiency 235U fission chamber in which the thin fissile deposit was located immediately behind the niobium and monitor foils. The latter acted as secondary measures of the neutron fluence but could be used as the primary standard in the event of failure of the fission chamber. Thus, the production cross-section was measured relative to the 235U fission cross-section which is a standard reference cross-section. Comparisons are made with other experimental data and with nuclear model calculations of the cross-section and recommended values based on these and our experimental data are presented. 相似文献

A new analytic representation for fast neutron spectra is described, based on the continuous slowing-down theory using generalized slowing-down parameters ξ(u), γ(u) in order to taking account of inelastic scattering. The theory is basically formulated for neutrons moderated from monoenergetic source. For fast reactor spectra calculations, the fission source is generated by means of fictitious inelastic scattering. Examples of calculation show good agreement with multigroup calculations. 相似文献

Angular dependent flux spectra from slab assemblies (lithium and graphite) were measured to test nuclear data and calculational methods for D-T fusion reactor neutronics. The collimated 14 MeV neutron source could be applied by the use of an associated particle method and the neutron spectra from 14 to 2 MeV were observed with TOF technique. The measured spectral pattern was dependent on the anisotropy of secondary neutrons emitted from both the elastic and the non-elastic scattering for 14 MeV neutrons. As for the numerical calculations, one-dimensional discrete ordinates transport codes (ANISN and NITRAN) were used. The multigroup cross sections processed with SPTG4Z from ENDF/B-IV were used as common nuclear data base. The problems of calculational methods and nuclear data were discussed in comparison with the experimental data and it was clarified that sufficient nuclear data of angular dependent cross sections for the non-elastic scattering have not been available in ENDF/B-IV and that the anisotropy of the scattering could not be calculated with ANISN which utilized the scattering kernel generated by incorrect treatment of scattering kinematics in the processing code. However, good agreement between the measurements and calculations was obtained by the use of NITRAN system with the appropriate processing codes of inelastic scattering anisotropies. It was shown that the NITRAN system was useful for anisotropic neutron transport calculations. 相似文献

Inelastic scattering of high energy fusion neutrons does affect the performance of fusion blanket based on the choice of different materials. It will also affect the behavior of source neutrons in a subcritical fusion fission hybrid blanket and consequently the transmutation and tritium breeding performance. A fusion fission hybrid test blanket module (HTBM) is designed which is presumed to be tested in a large sized tokamak and plasma neutron source is similar to ITER. In this preliminary design of HTBM the neutron source and loss factors are computed for the detailed neutronic performance analysis. The neutronic analysis of hybrid blanket module is performed for five different TRU fuel types: TRU-Zr, TRU-Mo, TRU-Oxide, TRU-Carbide and TRU-Nitride. In this module design, it is aimed to burn and transmute the TRU nuclides from high-level radioactive waste of PWR spent fuel. The effect of TiC reflector on transmutation and tritium breeding performance of HTBM is also quantified. MCNPX is used for neutronic computations. Neutron spectrum, capture to fission ratio and waste transmutation ratio of each fuel type are compared to evaluate their waste transmutation performance. Tritium breeding ratio is also compared for two coolant options: Li and LiPb eutectic. 相似文献

The source neutron characteristics of a water cooled type tritium target at the Fusion Neutronics Source (FNS) facility were calculated using a three-dimensional Monte Carlo method. The angular distribution and the energy spectra of the source neutrons were calculated and compared with the measured results. The comparison showed a reasonable agreement which increased the confidence of both measurement and calculation. The calculated neutron spectra which are free from the detector resolution smearing and which extend to lower neutron energy, will be used as the reference source for the future analyses of the experiments using the present-type water cooled target. 相似文献

SOURCES is a computer code that determines neutron production rates and spectra from (alpha, n) reactions, spontaneous fission, and delayed neutron emission due to the decay of radionuclides in homogeneous media, interface problems, and three-region interface problems. The code is also capable of calculating the neutron production rates due to (alpha, n) reactions induced by a monoenergetic beam of alpha particles incident on a slab of target material. The (alpha, n) spectra are calculated using an assumed isotropic angular distribution in the center-of-mass system with a library of 107 nuclide decay alpha-particle spectra, 24 sets of measured and/or evaluated (alpha, n) cross sections and product nuclide level branching fractions, and functional alpha particle stopping cross sections for Z < 106. Spontaneous fission sources and spectra are calculated with evaluated half-life, spontaneous fission branching, and Watt spectrum parameters for 44 actinides. The delayed neutron spectra are taken from an evaluated library of 105 precursors. The code outputs the magnitude and spectra of the resultant neutron sources. It also provides an analysis of the contributions to that source by each nuclide in the problem. 相似文献

Some test calculations were carried out to demonstrate the usefulness of double-differential cross sections for neutron transport calculations including anisotropic scattering. A transport code system NITRAN was applied for the purpose. In NITRAN, the anisotropy of elastic and inelastic scattering can be treated in a general form by double-differential total neutron-emission cross sections, which are generated from single-differential and/or original double-differential cross section data base.The test calculations were performed for neutron flux spectra in aluminum and lead slabs, and also for tritium production rates in a natural lithium sphere. Since the treatment free from collision kinematics is possible by using the double-differential cross sections in the Sncalculations, the discretization of secondary neutron energy distribution becomes independent of the segmentation of angular distribution. A significant improvement due to this independence can be seen in calculating the anisotropy of general inelastic scattering and the extreme anisotropy of elastic scattering by heavy nuclei. For precise anisotropic transport calculations, it is therefore concluded that the nuclear data of double-differential type are more suitable than those of single-differential type. 相似文献

N. Bohr's statistical theory [1, 2] has been used to calculate the excitation functions for inelastic scattering of neutrons at the individual levels of the target nuclei U238, U233, and Pu239 including competition between inelastic scattering and fission. The fission width was found from N. Bohr and Wheller's formula [3] including the penetrability of the fission barrier as given by Hill and Wheller [4]. The fission thresholds and the number of transition states at the saddle point were taken both from the experimental data of [5], and the theoretical data of [6].In conclusion the authors express their gratitude to L. N. Usachev, V. S. Stavinskii, and N. S. Rabotnov for their valuable comments and discussions as well as to L. S. Anufrienko for doing the calculational work. 相似文献

Double-differential neutron emission cross sections (DDXs) of 6Li, 7Li and 9Be were measured for 18.0 MeV and 11.5 MeV incident neutrons produced by the T(d, n) and 15N(d, n) reactions respectively, using the Tohoku University Dynamitron time-of-flight (TOF) spectrometer. The data were obtained at 13 laboratory angles, and angular-differential cross sections (ADXs) of elastic and inelastic scattering neutrons were derived from the DDXs. For 11.5 MeV neutrons, we obtained the neutron emission spectra over the secondary neutron energies by newly employing the double TOF method as well as the conventional one. In the measurements at 18.0 MeV, we achieved better energy resolution than in our previous studies by using a neutron detector that has a larger solid angle and a thinner tritium target. The experimental results of DDXs and ADXs were compared with our previous results and the evaluated data given in JENDL-3.2, JENDL Fusion File and ENDF/B-VI. It is found that the JENDL data reproduce the experimental ones very well. 相似文献

Time dependent neutron spectra from lithium assemblies were measured to assess the neutron cross sections of 7Li in ENDF/B-IV, which is important nuclide for the D-T fusion reactor blanket material. Pulsed neutrons produced by D-D or D-T reaction were used to measure leakage neutron spectra from cubical lithium assemblies as a function of time by the use of NE213 liquid scintillator. Calculations of time dependent neutron spectra were carried out by the Monte Carlo code SIMON, which was prepared for this study. The group constants used in these calculations were processed from ENDF/B-IV data. The calculated and the measured neutron spectra were compared for the following three; a stationary spectrum, spectra at each time interval and decay curves for specified energy groups. Discrepancies between the measured and the calculated neutron spectra were found in these comparisons. In order to assure the cause of these discrepancies, some calculations were carried out with recently measured cross sections of inelastic scattering which excite 0.478 and 4.63 MeV level of 7Li. It was concluded that some of the neutron cross section data of 7Li in ENDF/B-IV should be ameliorated. 相似文献

The paper describes recent progress in integral neutronics experiments in the analytical mockups for the blanket in a fusion-fission hybrid energy reactor. A conceptual blanket of the hybrid reactor is mainly loaded with natural uranium and lithium material. In the fission fuel region, uranium material and light water are arranged alternately. The mockups of the conceptual blanket are designed and used for checking neutron property of the blanket by integral experiments. Based on materials available, the spherical fission mockup for fission research and plutonium production consists of three layers of depleted uranium shells and several layers of polyethylene and graphite shells. The spherical lithium mockup for tritium production consists of depleted uranium and LiPb alloy shells. The cubic mockup consists of natural uranium and polyethylene and its structure is basically consistent with one of the fuel region. In the mockups with the D-T neutron source, the plutonium production rates, uranium fission rates and tritium production rates are measured, separately. The measured results are compared to the calculated ones with MCNP-4B code and ENDF/B-VI library data. 相似文献
