Study of radiation dosage to structural components in nuclear reactors
Abstract
The calculated neutron and gamma ray distributions may be used to estimate the total radiation exposure to which a reactor component is exposed over a period of time for the two generic reactor systems studied. The accurate knowledge of these radiation levels can be used to estimate the safety and licensibility of the pressure vessel and in-vessel components.
