Reactor Campaign (TRP)
In 1998, the Institute of Physics and Power Engineering (IPPE) and Experimental and Development Organization “Gidropress” in Russia, began the design and construction of a prototype lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) accelerator target, the Target Complex 1 (TC-1), under the International Science and Technology Center (ISTC) project #559 (“Pilot Flow Lead-Bismuth Target of 1 MW Power for Accelerator Driven Systems”) in support of the international efforts to develop accelerator-driven spallation systems for nuclear transmutation and other applications.
During the thermal and engineering test of the TC-1 in 2005 at UNLV, it was observed that the existing control algorithm led to a very …
