North American construction is back—smaller and faster—at OPG’s Darlington
“The nuclear renaissance is real here,” said Ontario Power Generation’s Subo Sinnathamby on May 8, one year to the day after OPG secured a final investment decision to build the first of four planned BWRX-300 reactors at its Darlington nuclear power plant, and shortly after the new reactor’s foundation was lifted into place. “We got our license to construct in April and our [final investment decision] in May, and we’ve been off to the races since.”

Neutron parameters were measured in Phase-I experiments of JAERI/USDOE collaborative program. A brief description of the experimental systems and measuring techniques is given. The range of measured source neutron spectrum is from a few keV to 16 MeV by the use of proton-recoil counters and a small NE213 spectrometer. Tritium production rates were measured by on-line and integral type techniques. The in-system scalar spectra were measured by the NE213 spectrometer. Foil activation method was applied to obtain the reaction rate distributions.
