Abstract

The standard surveillance programs of WWER reactors do not allow to measure the surveillance specimens irradiation conditions with the required accuracy. Therefore, the special methodology for the determination of the surveillance specimens irradiation conditions of the reactor pressure vessel metal has been developed by the specialists of the INR of NASU and is successfully applied. The developed methodology bases on the use of the Monte-Carlo code for neutron transport calculations to the surveillance specimens locations. The methodology improvement is described. The fundamentals of the calculation-experimental determination of the fast neutron fluences onto surveillance specimens and their uncertainties are presented.
