Russia’s AI Leipunsky Institute of Physics and Power Engineering in Obninsk has begun commissioning of a upgraded complex of critical stands (BFS) to better conduct research on nuclear safety. “The upgraded BFS complex is a modern laboratory for carrying out experiments necessary for the development of nuclear energy. We intend it to be used for the programme of experiments for advanced projects such as the BN-1200, ”said Pavel Zaitsev, General Director of Science and Innovation, the Scientific Division of state nuclear corporation Rosatom. Under the Federal Target Programme “Nuclear Power Technologies of the New Generation”, work was carried out to re-equip the BFS critical stands which are used for modelling the reactor cores of new generation designs. The facilities have been expanded, the technologies improved, and modern measuring equipment was installed to ensure high-performance accuracy and reliability of experiments. The modernization has extended the life of the complex by 40 years.
