Wear and Neutron Activation of Positioning Pins in the Millstone-2 Reactor

Wear and Co exp 60 activity were measured on three positioning pins discharged from the Millstone-2 reactor. These data were used to explicitly calculate the inventory of Co exp 60 released from the full complement of 26 positioning pins. Activated Co exp 60 is the isotope primarily responsible for...

Zusammenfassung:Wear and Co exp 60 activity were measured on three positioning pins discharged from the Millstone-2 reactor. These data were used to explicitly calculate the inventory of Co exp 60 released from the full complement of 26 positioning pins. Activated Co exp 60 is the isotope primarily responsible for the buildup of radiation fields on out-of-core surfaces. The data show positioning pin wear was a significant source of activity in this reactor. 6 ref.--AA
