NATIONAL CRITICALITY EXPERIMENTS RESEARCH CENTER: STATUS AND UPDATE

摘要

Four critical assembly machines (Comet, Planet, Flat-Top, and Godiva-IV) constitute the critical experiment capabilities at the National Criticality Experiments Research Center. All four machines are operational. Between these machines, systems ranging from the thermal through the intermediate to the fast spectrum may be assembled. Steady-State, transient, and super-prompt critical conditions may be explored. In this paper, the status and capabilities of NCERC are discussed.
