Abstract
The effective neutron temperature of a thermal reactor can be measured by directly counting the fission tracks of two fissile materials, 239Pu and 235U, irradiated in the reactor simultaneously. Glass slides were used as the fission track detectors. The effective neutron temperatures were measured at the reactor core of the open pool reactor. Results show that the effective neutron temperatures were 104°C at the positions near the control rods and 71°C at the center of the core, when reactor was operated at one kilowatt.
