..., in a ∼10 12 :1 gamma:neutron intensity environment resulting in a 150 Gy (15 kRad) accumulated dose for the CTMFD. The impacts on reliable operability were studied separately under expected gamma radiation energy and intensity for possible effects of: (i) radiolysis in the CTMFD sensing fluid from absorbed...

... in a reactor core under SCW conditions is required to achieve optimal water chemistry control and safety. A Monte Carlo simulation study of the radiolysis of SCW at 400 °C by incident 2 MeV monoenergetic neutrons (taken as representative of a fast neutron flux in a reactor) was carried out as a function...

... used in this study to examine the sensitivity of the density dependence of the yield of e aq − in the low–linear energy transfer (LET) radiolysis of supercritical water ( H 2 O ) at 400°C on variations in the temperature dependence of k . Two different values of the e aq − self-reaction rate constant...
