Abstract

The MBIR multipurpose, sodium-cooled, fast reactor designed by NIKIET is supposed to be started up in 2019 on the grounds of NIIAR. The reactor will be used to study and test new types of nuclear fuel, coolant, and building materials. This article reviews the subcriticality monitoring system of the MBIR reactor facility. The purpose, composition, and mathematical software of the subcriticality monitoring system are described.
