Comparison of Standard Light Water Reactor Cross-Section Libraries using the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Boiling Water Reactor Benchmark Problem

NUREG/CP-0105, Vol 3, Proceedings of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Seventeenth Water Reactor Safety Information Meeting

This three-volume report contains 84 papers out of the 111 that were presented at the Seventeenth Water Reactor Safety Information Meeting held at the Holiday Inn Crowne Plaza, Rockville, Maryland, during the week of October 23-25, 1989. The papers are printed in the order of their presentation in each session and describe progress and results of programs in nuclear safety research conducted in...

Actinide Burning in a Standard Pressurized Water Reactor

This study investigates actinide burning in a standard lattice PWR. It assumes that after the first loading of depleted uranium, plutonium and minor actinides, only the fission products are removed and only depleted uranium and the plutonium/minor actinide mixture are added. The relative concentrations of plutonium and minor actinide feed are always maintained the same as PWR discharge fuel aft...
