摘要： Detectors are used to monitor the status of spent nuclear fuel storage containers non-invasively while they remain in storage casks. The detectors measure neutron flux and &ggr;-ray flux and may also measure temperature variations of the spent nuclear fuel. The measurements can be accomplished actively or passively, with minimal exposure of individuals to radiation fields or other hazardous conditions. Preferred neutron and &ggr;-ray detectors have a semiconductor active region that is resistant to neutron damage. Incipient structural failures may also be detected using measurements based on electrical continuity, with data being transmitted to an external pickup coil.

摘要： A reactor cavity dosimetry system and method for deploying the system which includes a top access support stand. Having a generally rectangular frame assembly formed by a pair of cross members and a pair of frame tubes, the support stand holds the dosimetry in place as part of a continuous loop. The continuous loop is first fed through a U-shaped tube situated beneath the support stand, and coupled together by a chain support plug which is adapted for insertion within a hole formed in an upper one of the cross members to fix the position of the dosimetry axially with respect to the core of a nuclear power plant within which the system is deployed. Each of the frame tubes has mounted thereon a pivotable arm assembly with a spring-loaded slide. After insertion within the cavity, the arm assemblies are pivoted out from the plane of the frame assembly, and disposed locked in place perpendicularly across the cavity. The spring-loading of the arm assemblies thus maintains the support stand in a substantially upright position.

摘要： An apparatus is provided for determining the thermal history of an environment for purposes of monitoring thermal aging in equipment or the extent to which a process has proceeded. The apparatus comprises a plurality of solid state track recorders, and the range of activation energy values among the solid state track recorders encompasses the activation energy of the thermal aging process of the equipment to be monitored. Using Arrhenius functions, data obtained from the apparatus can be used to determine an equivalent average temperature which is combined with the equipment life data to determine the extent of thermal aging.

摘要： Apparatus for monitoring an object piece of qualified equipment in a nuclear power plant includes passive means for detecting a total integrated dose of radiation received by the object piece, means for determining a thermal history of the object piece, and means for housing the passive detection means and determining means in close proximity to the object piece. In order to generate and maintain evidence to assure that qualified equipment used in such stations will operate on demand, the passive detection means and determining means mounted in close proximity to the object piece are exposed to the environment of a normally operating power plant and periodically analyzed to determine whether the qualified life of the object piece may be extended.

摘要： Disclosed is a method and apparatus for measuring the burnup of nuclear fuel. A curve giving the calculated relationship between the fast neutron emission rate and the burnup of fuel is prepared. The fast neutron counting rate from a sample of nuclear fuel of known burnup is measured and the proportionality ratio between that measurement and the fast neutron emission given by the curve for the same burnup is determined. The fast neutron counting rate of nuclear fuel of unknown burnup is then measured and multiplied by the proportionality ratio to determine the fast neutron emission rate, from which the unknown burnup is then determined by means of the curve.

摘要： An improved support apparatus is structured to support a dosimetry system within an interior region of a containment apparatus. The dosimetry system is supported in a region between an interior surface of the containment apparatus and an exterior surface of a reactor apparatus that is disposed within the interior of the containment apparatus. The support apparatus includes a retention apparatus having a plurality of brace elements that each have a receptacle formed therein. The receptacles are aligned with one another when installed within the interior of the containment apparatus. The support apparatus further includes a tube apparatus that includes a plurality of tube segments that are connectable together. The dosimetry system is situated within an elongated cavity formed in the tube apparatus. The tube apparatus is situated in the receptacles and thereby supports the dosimetry system on the containment apparatus.
