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.”

In December 2011, the National Nuclear Data Center released ENDF/B-VII.1, the “latest recommended evaluated nuclear data file for use in nuclear science and technology applications.” The data were released in the standard Evaluated Nuclear Data Format (ENDF). This release represents the advances made in nuclear data during the 5 years since the release of ENDF/B-VII.0. The Nuclear Data Team at Los Alamos National Laboratory has processed the ENDF/B-VII.1 library and made available a library of ACE data tables at several temperatures for each of the ENDF/B files. The ACE data library is called ENDF71x and is available through the Radiation Safety Information Computational Center with MCNP6. The files can also be used with MCNP5 or other Monte Carlo codes.
