Fuel Debris Monitoring Collaboration and Experiences in Criticality Monitoring

Fukushima Daiichi fuel debris removal provides technical challenges and opportunities for the international criticality safety community. The US DOE-NCSP (Nuclear Criticality Safety Program) and France (IRSN) will support 1F fuel debris efforts through collaboration on real-time criticality monitoring. This work will describe a collaboration that is starting soon and will also describe previous efforts associated with criticality experiments and neutron analysis of unknown systems.

DAQs Quick Start Guide

DAQs is a Windows® computer app designed to communicate with the Advanced List Mode Module (ALMM), MC-15, and instrumentation based off these platforms. The ALMM communicates with DAQS over the Ethernet using TCP/IP. If you register the IPv4 address of the ALMM on the local network the ALMM can be operated remotely. However, if the ALMM is not connected to the local network then the computer running DAQs will need to be connected directly to the ALMM or an additional Ethernet adapter will need to be installed on the acquisition computer. The IPv4 address can be changed in the rei.ini file located on the µSD card. Please see the appendices for more information on the rei.ini file. This document is intended to be a quick start guide on how to get an ALMM connected to a computer and how to start a data acquisition. DAQs has much more capability than is presented in this document.
