Abstract:
In order to do enriched uranium cylinder shape critical assembly empty-handed assembling criticality safety validation experiment, validation assembly based on pellicle assembling was designed instead of upper part of enriched uranium cylinder shape critical assembly. keff of enriched uranium cylinder shape critical assembly and validation assembly was calculated by MCNP. Neutron multiplication of validate assembly was measured. Neutron multiplication is under 12.50. The value meets the need of limited value of the assembly. The experiment results validate that the enriched uranium cylinder shape critical assembly empty-handed assembling is safe.
