The Sodium-cooled Fast Reactor (sfr)
The Sodium-cooled fast reactor (SFR) features a closed fuel cycle for efficient conversion of fertile uranium and management of minor actinides. A full actinide-recycle fuel cycle is envisioned with two major options: One involves intermediatesized (150 to 500 MWe) sodium-cooled fast reactors with uranium-plutonium-minor-actinidezirconium metal alloy fuel, supported by a fuel cycle based on pyr...
متن کاملExperimental Approach to Flow Field Evaluation in Upper Plenum of Reactor Vessel for Innovative Sodium Cooled Fast Reactor
In Japan Atomic Energy Agency, an innovative sodium cooled fast reactor of 1500MWe class, JSFR, has been investigated on the Fast Reactor Cycle Technology Development project. A compact reactor vessel (R/V) and a column type upper inner structure with a radial slit for an arm of a fuel-handling machine are adopted. These result in increase of the spatial-averaged velocity on the horizontal cros...
متن کاملFast Reactor Fuel Reprocessing Technology in India
The limited indigenous uranium resource coupled with the need of energy independence necessitated the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) in India to opt for a three-stage nuclear power program comprising of PHWRs in Stage 1, FBRs in Stage 2 and Th-U based reactors in Stage 3, respectively to meet the energy needs of the growing Indian economy. Presently the country has stepped into the 2nd Stage...
متن کاملLead-cooled Fast Reactor (lfr): Overview and Perspectives
he GIF Technology Roadmap [1] identified the Lead-cooled Fast Reactor (LFR) as a technology with great potential to meet the small-unit electricity needs of remote sites while also offering advantages as a large system for grid-connected power stations. The LFR features a fast-neutron spectrum and a closed fuel cycle for efficient conversion of fertile uranium. It can also be used as a burner o...
متن کاملTwo-Phase Flow Simulation of Gas Entrainment Phenomena in Large-Scale Experimental Model of Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactor
The authors have been developed a high-precision and high-performance numerical simulation algorithm for gas-liquid two-phase flows to simulate the gas entrainment (GE) phenomena in a large-sized sodium-cooled fast reactor in Japan (JSFR). In the simulation algorithm, the piecewise linear interface reconstruction (PLIC) algorithm is employed for the interface-tracking and physics-basis simulati...
