Experimental measurement and Monte Carlo code simulation of the gamma heating at different irradiation sites in a nuclear research reactor
Abstract
Interaction of radiation with matter results in heat generation and in effect, changes in the irradiation sample’s quality. Knowledge about heat deposition within the irradiation sites can go a long way in enhancing the safety and quality of the irradiation condition. To measure such results, SCK-CEN Gamma Thermometer (GT) is used for experimentally measuring Gamma Heating (GH) during the operation of McMaster Nuclear Reactor (MNR) at three …
