This technical study examines the neutronic behavior of a proposed replacement for the National Bureau of Standards Reactor. It describes the preliminary NIST Neutron Source concept and the computational assumptions used to assess how that design would perform as a research facility.
The authors discuss model development, the equilibrium core, neutron flux distributions, fuel performance and selected safety-related parameters. Calculations and diagrams are presented with their assumptions and limitations so that the results can be understood in the context of a pre-conceptual assessment. The complete original report retains its figures, tables and references.
