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 computerized tomography (CT) system for the translation experiment of field-reversed configuration (FRC) is completed on the FIX device. This system is composed of three detector arrays which are sensitive to the near infrared radiation. To avoid light reflection at the vacuum wall, a black anodized aluminum panel is installed just inside of the metal chamber. Two dimensional distribution of the light emissivity of a translated FRC plasma is reconstructed using the Fourier-Bessel expansion technique.
