Abstract:A model of the Triga Mark III reactor of the National Institute for Nuclear Research (ININ) of Mexico was developed with the Monte Carlo codes Serpent and MCNP. The models were verified and validated by means of the experiments carried out as part of the starting tests to change the mixed fuel to Low Enrichment Fuels (LEU) of the TRIGA reactor core. The reactor data used in the V&V process consisted of fuel loading measurements, simulating the different stages of loading of fuel elements to the core to reach t… Show more
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.
