TEST APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR FAST REACTOR'S CORE PHYSICS TEST

摘要

The present invention relates to a test apparatus and a method for a core physics test of a high speed reactor. The method for a core physics test of a high speed reactor comprises the following steps: receiving selection of a type of the core physics test; identifying perturbation characteristics depending on the selected type of the core physics test; calculating the number of fuel rods to which perturbation will be applied among nuclear fuel rods forming the core of the reactor based on the perturbation characteristics; determining locations of the fuel rods to which perturbation will be applied among the nuclear fuel rods of the reactor core; performing the core physics test on the reactor core with some nuclear fuel rods to which perturbation has been applied according to the calculated number and locations; and measuring nuclear characteristics of the reactor core based on the result of the core physics test. The present invention is to provide the apparatus for a core physics test of a high speed reactor which can measure nuclear characteristics of the reactor core by applying perturbation to the nuclear fuel rods.
