用于反应堆内相对中子通量密度在线测量的闪烁体光纤探测系统研制

Development on Scintillator Fiber Detect System for On-line Measurement of Relative Neutron Flux Density in Reactor

  • 摘要: 为实现反应堆不同空间和能量的相对中子通量密度在线监测,本文研究开发了一套新型的用于狭小空间且位置灵敏的闪烁体中子探测系统。该套系统由5种探头、5路光子计数器、1台计算机及相应的软件组成。5种探头的主要构成物质分别为6LiF+ZnS(Ag)、232ThO2+ZnS(Ag)、238UO2+ZnS(Ag)、9Be+ZnS(Ag)以及BGO晶体,故可测量不同能量的相对中子通量密度。其中,掺有6LiF的探头用于热中子的测量,BGO探头用于γ测量,其余3种探头用于快中子的测量。利用该系统进行了启明星1#装置内热中子及快中子的相对通量密度分布测量,并将测量结果与利用蒙特卡罗方法得到的理论分布结果进行了比较。考虑到理论设置参数与实际实验参数的差别,可认为测量结果是可信的。

     

    Abstract: In order to on-line measure the relative neutron flux density for different space and energy in the reactor, a new scintillator fiber detect system was developed. The system consists of five kinds of detectors, five photon counters, a computer and the corresponding software. The main composition materials of five detectors are 6LiF+ZnS(Ag), 232ThO2+ZnS(Ag), 238UO2+ZnS(Ag), 9Be+ZnS(Ag) and BGO crystal, so the different energy relative neutron flux densities can be detected. The detector doped with 6LiF is used for thermal neutron measuring. BGO detector is used for gamma ray measuring. And the other three kinds ofdetectors are used for fast neutron measuring. The system was used for thermal and fast neutron relative flux density distributions measuring in Venus1# assembly. The measuring data were compared with the data gotten by Monte-Carlo method. The measuring data are considered to be credible considering the difference between the theory parameters and the real experiment parameters.
