Neutron transport analysis of McMaster nuclear reactor advanced dynamic neutron imaging facility

An advanced dynamic neutron imaging facility is being commissioned in the McMaster Nuclear Reactor (MNR) for non-destructive testing and multi-phase flow studies in energy and environmental research and development. The facility is required to produce a high quality thermal neutron flux of 10 ⁷-10⁸ n/cm²-s with a collimation ratio of 120 at image plane to promote high-speed neutron imaging up to 2000 frames per second. Neutron source strength …
