摘要
Research on transients is one of the main focuses in the field of accelerator driven subcritical reactor (ADSR). But inducing the transients by accelerator is inconvenient and costly. Simulating transients by sealed-tube neutron generator, through improving the driver of Penning ion source and modulating trigger signals of pulsed neutron, is a fast, accurate, reliable and low-cost method. This method has been used in simulating transients on the physics test platform of ADSR in China Institute of Atomic Energy (CIAE). And this method also can be applied in PGNAA.
