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.”

A new experimental arrangement using pseudo-line D-T neutron source has been developed to investigate the neutronics performance in the fusion blanket and related components. The arrangement is simple in construction and gives well-simulated fusion reactor environment combined with the flexibility in testing various factors. In examining the deficiencies in nuclear data, calculation methods or modeling, it provides a powerful means either for basic benchmark experiments in clear geometry or design-supporting experiments with complexity of the recent blanket design. The features of the line source facility and the experimental scope are described.
