Abstract
At the Low Flux Reactor from ECN at Petten, a neutron radiography installation is in use for the evaluation of neutron radiography techniques and the non-destructive testing of nonradioactive objects. For this purpose a vertical beam is used from this Argonaut-type reactor with a maximum power of 10 kW. In general the direct detection technique with gadolium foil is applied.
Application of neutron radiography for metal bonded specimens have shown very useful results.
