Advanced Test Reactor Experiment Safety Analysis

This presentation contains general information about the Advanced Test Reactor experiment safety analysis program. Accidents and dose consequence are discussed in general terms. Pictures of ATR facilities and experiments are included. In cases where experiments are shown, identification numbers have been removed. Department of Energy limits on dose consequence are provided. These limits are found in many non-CUI documents and a derived from publicly available sources. A summary of the presentation content is as follows: -Define Experiment Safety Analysis -Discuss what we are protecting and the applicable limits -Show how safety analysis fits into the experiment process -Explore the scope of experiment activities and associated accidents -Present how we categorize accidents and establish accident frequencies -Identify how controls are implemented and process improvements

Abstract

This presentation contains general information about the Advanced Test Reactor experiment safety analysis program. Accidents and dose consequence are discussed in general terms. Pictures of ATR facilities and experiments are included. In cases where experiments are shown, identification numbers have been removed. Department of Energy limits on dose consequence are provided. These limits are found in many non-CUI documents and a derived from publicly available sources. A summary of the presentation content is as follows: -Define Experiment Safety Analysis -Discuss what we are protecting and the applicable limits -Show how safety analysis fits into the experiment process -Explore the scope of experiment activities and associated accidents -Present how we categorize accidents and establish accident frequencies -Identify how controls are implemented and process improvements
