Effects of Neutron Flux Distribution and Control Rod Shadowing on Control Rod Calibrations in the Oregon State TRIGA<sup>®</sup> Reactor

Effects of Neutron Flux Distribution and Control Rod Shadowing on Control Rod Calibrations in the Oregon State TRIGA<sup>®</sup> Reactor

Control rod calibration experiment results for the Oregon State TRIGA<sup>®</sup> Reactor (OSTR) immediately following LEU conversion in 2008, and MCNP<sup>®</sup> 5 predicted rod worths from the 2008 LEU Conversion Safety Analysis Report (CSAR) are discussed. The reactivity...
