Abstract
For the second part, reactivity worth measurements of irradiated UOx fuels were performed in the MINERVE facility using an oscillation technique. The analysis shows a very good agreement between the calculated and the experimental values of reactivity loss for the three samples, with different void fraction and burn-up. The Calculation - Experiment biases (C/E â 1) are lower than +1.8%, with an uncertainty of 2.8% (1Ï).
