DIORIT
Diorit was an experimental nuclear research reactor at the Paul Scherrer Institute, Swiss Federal Institute for Reactor Research (EIR) in Würenlingen (Canton of Aargau, Switzerland) This nuclear reactor was operated by EIR from 1960 to 1977. Heavy water (D2O) was used as the Neutron moderator, moderator, as well as the coolant.Conrad H. 1972: Strahlenschutzprobleme beim Umbau des Schwerwasser-Reaktors Diorit. Kernforschungszentrum Karlsruhe KFK 1638 Tagung vom 17.-19. Mai 1972 in Karlsruhe: Strahlenschutz am Arbeitsplatz S. 79–87.PDF). The initially commissioned reactor had a thermal power of 20 MW. Natural uranium was initially used as fuel, which was later changed to enriched uranium. The long, aluminium and nickel cased Nuclear fuel, fuel rods were produced by American Machine and Foundry#Bowling pinsetters and nuclear reactors, AMF Atomics Canada Ltd. Military background Heavy water (deuterium) has a particularly good neutron economy, which in turn makes for good produc ...
