第一届新型反应堆安全及发展研讨会 PRELIMINARY RESULTS FROM PNS EXPERIMENT Discussion on the experimental results  Prompt neutron attenuation constants show strong spatial dependence;  The attenuation constants obtained by detectors show large discrepancies;  The experimental results conflict with theory of experimental reactor physics (lumped parameter Point Reactor Dynamics) ;  Which attenuation constant should be used as a sub-critical indicator, or how to make spatial corrections.

第一届新型反应堆安全及发展研讨会 SIMULATION OF PNS EXPERIMENT ON CERTAIN CONDITION Theoretical considerations  Harmonics neutron flux seriously affects detector responses in deep sub-critical condition (both static & transient ) ;  For Fast-thermal coupled system, typical prompt neutron life time is second, width of multi-channel should be correspond to the condition for better inferring of harmonics (can be easily realized in simulation);  To obtain the prompt neutron attenuation constants (fundamental mode), harmonics should be filtered.

第一届新型反应堆安全及发展研讨会 SIMULATION OF PNS EXPERIMENT ON CERTAIN CONDITION Theoretical considerations  In transient conditions, neutron flux can be expressed as:  Consider Alpha Eigen-value problem, neutron density in PNS:  Contribution of external source  Contribution of fundamental Alpha mode  Contributions of the i th harmonic Alpha modes

第一届新型反应堆安全及发展研讨会 SIMULATION OF PNS EXPERIMENT ON CERTAIN CONDITION Theoretical considerations  Relationship of each attenuation constant:  When harmonics and source contribution disappeared:

第一届新型反应堆安全及发展研讨会 SIMULATION OF PNS EXPERIMENT ON CERTAIN CONDITION Methodology of simulation  Simulation conditions:  MCNP4C TM selected as PNS simulation code;  2046 thermal fuel pins loading for comparison with experiment;  Multi-channel width set as 5us for better inferring harmonics effect, totally 600 channels (0~3000us, the same as experiment);  Data processing technique:  Detector response of R selected as benchmark;  Relative responses to R used for fundamental attenuation time region search;

第一届新型反应堆安全及发展研讨会 Simulation results  Detector responses in time interval 500~3000us selected as fundamental attenuation constant fitting SIMULATION OF PNS EXPERIMENT ON CERTAIN CONDITION Detectors6th10thRS Alpha values ± ± ± ±1.12 Correlation coefficients

第一届新型反应堆安全及发展研讨会 COMPARISON OF SIMULATED AND EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS Comparison of detector responses  The simulated data use the same channel width of experiment;  Quite different attenuation trends observed. Simulated dataExperimental data

第一届新型反应堆安全及发展研讨会 COMPARISON OF SIMULATED AND EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS Comparison of Alpha constants  Original experiment data;  harmonics filtered simulated data;  harmonics filtered experimental data. Original Exp. data Harmonics filtered Exp. Data(500~3000us) Alpha values6th10thRS Original Experimental data ± ± ± ±36.4 Harmonics filtered Experimental data ± ± ± ±59.0 Harmonics filtered simulated data ± ± ± ±1.12

第一届新型反应堆安全及发展研讨会 COMPARISON OF SIMULATED AND EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS Comparison of Alpha constants  original experimental data;  harmonics filtered simulated data;  harmonics filtered experimental data.  The Alpha indicated by detector 10 th has been improved;  The Alpha value obtained by detector S is closest to simulated one;  The Alpha value of detector R still show big discrepancy.

第一届新型反应堆安全及发展研讨会 COMPARISON OF SIMULATED AND EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS Verification of the simulated Alpha  In one neutron generation time, the prompt neutron population:  For sub-critical system:  Relationship between k p and Alpha: kp6th10thRS From α MCNP ± △ kp* %1.761%1.760%1.656%

第一届新型反应堆安全及发展研讨会 SUMMARY & FUTURE SUGGESTIONS  Using relative neutron count rates as an indicator, time region for fundamental Alpha mode decay can be easily obtained (a harmonics filtering technique);  The simulated data with harmonics filtering technique give a spatially independent prompt neutron attenuation constants;  Some Alpha values from experiment is improved by harmonics filtering, however some other values are worsen. Summary

第一届新型反应堆安全及发展研讨会 SUMMARY & FUTURE SUGGESTIONS Suggestions  Since the big discrepancy between experiment and simulation, as well as the short neutron life time and harmonics influence in the Fast-thermal couple ADS core, more rapid electronics data collection system should be used in future PNS experiment;  Although the harmonics filtering technique show the capability for Alpha measuring, the accuracy of calculated prompt neutron generation time plays a key role in verification work (consider the coupling between external neutron source region, fast blanket, thermal blanket and reflector, the effective generation time should be introduced, as well as its calculation theory)
