Summary

Pneumatic transfer system(PTS) is one of the facilities to be used in

irradiation of target materials for neutron activation analysis (NAA) in the

research reactor. There are two systems, the manual and the automatic

system, in PTS of HANARO research reactor. The pneumatic transfer system

consists of many devices sends and loads the capsules from NAA Laboratory

into three holes in the reflector tank of reactor and retrieves irradiated

capsules after irradiation. This report describes the part's design, control

system and the operation procedures. All the algorithm described in the text

will be used for maintenance and upgrading.

Abstract (15-20 Lines)

Pneumatic transfer system(PTS) is one of the facilities to be used inirradiation of target materials for neutron activation analysis(NAA) in theresearch reactor. There are two systems the manual and the automaticsystem in PTS of HANARO research reactor. The pneumatic transfersystem consists of many devices, sends and loads the capsules from NAALaboratory into three holes in the reflector tank of reactor and retrievesirradiated capsules after irradiation.This report describes the part's design,control system and the operation procedures. All the algorithm described inthe text will be used for maintenance and upgrading.
