Abstract

Safety investigations of the initial loading and future double loading configurations are reported. Comparison of the fluxes generated by discrete sources and a line source are given. Spectra generated by the FBBF are compared to those obtained for a large fast breeder reactor. Further analysis of the gamma-ray heating rates have been performed using coupled neutron-gamma-ray transport calculations. Gamma-ray heating rates in uranium and UO/sub 2/ have been calculated; the effect of changing the extrapolated height for the transverse leakage correction to the one-dimensional calculations have been investigated.
