ACRS seeking new committee member
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS) is currently seeking qualified candidates to fill an open committee member position. Applications for the position will be accepted until July 30. The ACRS is the world’s oldest organization devoted to reactor safety, and the group reports directly to the NRC’s commissioners in order to provide independent technical reviews of and advice on a wide variety of nuclear topics.

The adequacy of the Advanced Recycle Methodology Program for predicting isotopic ratios as a function of exposure is determined for a light water reactor of modern design. For the first time, the capabilities of a two-dimensional multigroup transport theory code have been applied to the calculation of isotopic parameters for a commercial U.S. pressurized water reactor. The calculated results are found to be in satisfactory agreement with benchmark measurements. However, captures in seem to be underpredicted when ENDF/B-IV (or ENDF/B-III) resonance parameters for the 1.056-eV resonance are used in the calculations.
