Abstract
To evaluate neutron flux calculational methods, fission rates were measured in the FTR Engineering Mockup Critical (EMC) assembly, and calculated fission rates were obtained for comparison. Several variations of the analytical methods were used to investigate their suitability and calculation-versus-experiment (C/E) bias factors were obtained which can be used to adjust calculated fission rate ratios in the FTR. A brief description is given of the EMC configuration, the experiment, and the results of the experiments. The analytical methods are described, the calculated results are given, and comparisons are made between the experimental and analytical results.
