ABSTRACT
A uranium silicide fuel element prototype was fabricated in the Argentine
Republic and introduced in the RA-3 reactor on April this year. Cell and
overall reactor calculations were performed in order to confirm that the
reactor operation limits were not surpassed. Neutron fluxes were measured
in the silicide prototype and compared with calculated values.
