The similar US EBR-II operated from 1964 to 1994, including simulated emergencies like a sudden shutdown at full power, demonstrating the passive safety of these pool-type sodium-cooled reactors ...

The UML Nuclear Reactor is water cooled and operates at a maximum power level of one megawatt. It is used primarily for training and research in the fields of nuclear science, radiochemistry and ...

Brazil was the first country in the Southern Hemisphere to inaugurate a nuclear research reactor — the IEA-R1, a 2 megawatt pool-type reactor. This reactor started operation in 1957 in what is now ...

The pool-type 200 kW pressurized water research reactor, developed by Russia's Research Institute of Atomic Reactors, is designed to have a service life of 50 years and is part of a Russian ...

Secondly, the pool-type reactor designs and the presence of a cover-gas region give rise to thermal hydraulic phenomena which are unique to such reactors. In this project, we carry out the following ...

The laboratory is based in the Ezeiza Atomic Centre and its instruments will use high-flux neutron beams produced in the RA-10 multipurpose reactor, which is currently under construction. The RA-10 ...
