Construction of a Neutron Deep Penetration Sodium Shield Mockup
IN FAST BREEDER REACTOR DESIGN A GOOD KNOWLEDGE OF THE NEUTRON PROPAGATION IN THICK LAYERS OF SODIUM IS INDISPENSABLE. IN ORDER TO PROVIDE EXPERIMENTAL DATA OF FLUX ATTENUATION AND FISSION NEUTRON SPECTRUM DEFORMATION AT CONSIDERABLE PENETRATION DEPTHS, A LARGE SODIUM MOCK-UP WAS ASSEMBLED IN THE EURACOS II IRRADIATION FACILITY. THE DETAILS OF THE SODIUM TANKS CONSTRUCTION, THE DOSE-RATES RESULTING FROM IRRADIATION AND OTHER SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS ARE REPORTED.
