dc.description.abstractHIFAR (High Flux Australian Reactor) is a 100MW DIDO-class research reactor operated by the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO). Every four years HIFAR has a scheduled major shutdown to undertake inspection, maintenance and upgrade activities that are not possible at other times. The last major shutdown was in late 1995 and lasted 10 weeks during which, and amongst other activities, the Reactor Aluminium Tank was inspected and the major part of the Secondary Cooling Water Circuit pipework replaced. New cooling pipework was designed in accordance with Australian Standards Pressure Piping Code, employing NISA II computer software for finite element analysis where appropriate, with a view to ensuring safety under every conceivable operating and accident condition. Design, manufacture and installation activities were carried out according to ANSTO Engineering's Quality System Procedures (1S09OO1-1994 accredited) and agreed by the Nuclear Safety Bureau, an independent organisation. through staged document submissions.en_AU
