Neutron Age in Graphite-Water Lattices.
Description:
The Fermi age of thermal neutrons in a lattice containing both water and graphite in some sort of weighted average of the age in water and in graphite independently, with correction for volumes of non-moderating elements or voids. The correct weighting function has been in question during design calculations for the NPR. This paper presents a very simple and direct approach to the problem, resulting in a weighting equation which seems to be theoretically sound. Unfortunately, simple theories ca…
