This work presents a logic scheme for regulating the safe operation of research reactors in accordance with the IAEA Safety Series SS-35-S2 and revised by the Codes of Fedral Regulations 10 CFR. It emphasizes the regulatory inspection and enforcement (RI&E) program in the reactor operation licensing phases. It is developed to provide information , guidance and recommendations to be taken when constructing a RI&E program to be applied in the operational phase of the Egyptian research reactors. The RI&E procedures for regulating safe operation of research reactors are presented as flow charts, and then developed as a computer logic scheme. The software program is efficient , friendly, simple and interactive in nature such that the program asks the user certain questions about essential steps that guide the RI&E for research reactors and the user responds by (yes) or (no) and the program proceeds based on this response until all the necessary RI&E steps are accomplished. Samples of results of the RI&E software execution showing some violation cases with their inspective and corrective paths throughout the program are presented and discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
