Reactivity Meter Analysis of Rod-Drop Experiments in Zed-2

One of two project reports. The other one is designated
PART A: McMASTER (ON-CAMPUS) PROJECT / <p> A reactivity meter code based on point kinetics was developed.
Rod-drop experiments performed in the ZED-2 reactor tested the code for
various detector and rod-drop positions. A delayed neutron hold-up
effect was observed whenever a rod was dropped close to a detector. A
better understanding of this effect was obtained through a theoretical
analysis of the pertinent experiments. The three-dimensional kinetics
code, CERBERUS, was used for the theoretical analysis. </p> / Thesis / Master of Engineering (MEngr)
