| Summary: | This report provides a set of suggested methods and practices for determining the source term (the amount of radioactive or hazardous material released to the environment following an accident) and analyzing the radiological consequences of research reactor accidents. It provides the calculation methods and techniques necessary for deriving the source term. This includes all factors relevant to the formation of radioactive releases, and for estimating on- and off-site radiological consequences. The specific examples of methods and techniques provided are also intended to meet the requirements and recommendations for performing safety analyses for research reactor facilities, particularly for preparing safety analysis reports.--Publisher's description. |
