Abstract

The invention relates to the field of neutron energy spectrum measurement, and particularly discloses a temperature control fluid neutron spectrometer, a measurement method and an analysis processingsystem thereof. The temperature control fluid neutron spectrometer comprises a fluid chamber filled with fluid, a detector surrounded by the fluid chamber, a heating element for heating the fluid andthe like, so that the density of the fluid in the fluid chamber is changed by controlling the temperature, the sensitivity to neutrons of over 10 MeV is improved, and the energy spectrum measurement of thermal neutrons of 0-1000 MeV is realized; the same detector is used for measurement, so that the problem of mutual interference among a plurality of measuring devices is solved; meanwhile, the fluid density is changed by adopting a temperature control mode, a series of continuous moderated layer fluid with different densities can be rapidly formed, and enough measurement values are provided for spectrum unfolding. According to the measurement method, a response matrix and a characteristic equation are constructed by adopting a function simulation method to calculate the neutron energy spectrum based on a sufficient number of measurement values provided by a detector, so that the measurement accuracy and stability are ensured, and a problem of poor conformity of a high-energy region during spectrum unfolding is solved.

Background technique [0002] In order to protect the health of radiation workers, the public, sympathizers and visitors, and monitor the normal operation of nuclear facilities, it is necessary to analyze the neutron flux and neutron energy spectrum (the distribution of neutron flux rate with energy in nuclear facilities and the environment) ) to measure. [0003] Nowadays, multi-sphere neutron spectrometers, namely Bonner spheres, are mostly used to measure neutron energy spectra.
