OECD NEA meeting focuses on irradiation experiments
Members of the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency’s Second Framework for Irradiation Experiments (FIDES-II) joint undertaking gathered from September 29 to October 3 in Ketchum, Idaho, for the technical advisory group and governing board meetings hosted by Idaho National Laboratory. The FIDES-II Framework aims to ensure and foster competences in experimental nuclear fuel and structural materials in-reactor experiments through a diverse set of Joint Experimental Programs (JEEPs).

A driving device was designed and fabricated using large integration for activated wire counting. The salient points of this setup are presented with reference to reactor flux mapping. They are (a) easy positioning, (b) adjustable speed of motor rotation by varying time sequence, (c) reversible motor rotation, and (d) on-line operation of several units. The device can be used for routine flux mapping and reactor experiments.
