Scope
Under the direction of the Standards Policy and Strategy Committee, is responsible for the UK input to ISO/TC 85/SC 6 and to cover standardization in the field of nuclear power plants and research reactors.
Purpose
The committee would mirror ISO/TC 85/SC 6 (Reactor technology) whose scope covers standardization in the field of nuclear power plants and research reactors. The scope includes:
• Calculation, analysis and measurements in support of physics of power reactor core design and operation.
• Siting, design, construction, operation and decommissioning. Siting includes all types of nuclear installations and all topics such as flooding, seismic hazards, etc.
• Research reactors include a large variety of facilities : production of neutron beams, irradiation of specimens, production of isotopes (especially production for nuclear medicine) and test reactors or prototypes of new technologies.
Excluded : decommissioning is limited to technical topics that are specific to reactors
The committee would also cover emerging areas including small modular reactors, advanced modular reactors, fusion technology and fission technology.
