Abstract

After 50 years of service for the Research&Development in neutron science and technology, the Heavy Water Research Reactor (HWRR) (maximum power 10 MW) at CIAE was taken out of service in 2007. The China Advanced Research Reactor (CARR) at the Chinese Institute of Atomic Energey (CIAE) has taken over this role. It is a 60 MW tank-in-pool type reactor using a D2O reflector for inverse neutron trap, designed to yield an optimal undisturbed thermal neutron flux of 8 × 1014 n/cm2•s.
