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 کاملA New Methodology for Plutonium Homogeneity Level Determination in Sodium Fast Reactor Fresh Fuel From Uranium and Plutonium X-ray Mappings
In the framework of the Fourth Generation program, the CEA studies a new concept of Sodium Fast Reactor (SFR) named ASTRID [1]. The reference fuel chosen for the reactor starting is uranium and plutonium mixed oxides. This type of fuel had been fabricated until 1999 during the PHENIX (French SFR prototype) operation. The industrial process led to homogeneous uranium /plutonium distributions in ...
متن کاملA Particle-bed Gas-cooled Fast Reactor Core Design for Waste Minimisation
The issue of waste minimisation in advanced reactor systems has been investigated using the Particle-Bed Gas-cooled Fast Reactor (PB-GCFR) design being developed and funded under the U.S. Department of Energy Nuclear Energy Research Initiative (USDOE NERI) Programme. Results indicate that for the given core power density and constraint on the maximum TRU enrichment allowable, the lowest amount ...
متن کاملمحاسبات مصرف سوخت و پارامترهای نوترونیک مربوط به رآکتورهای آب سنگین تحقیقاتی با سوخت اورانیوم- توریوم توسط کد MCNPX
One of the main characteristics of heavy water research reactors is their high production of plutonium. This work demonstrates the possibility of reduction of plutonium production and other actinides in heavy water research reactors. Among the many ways for reducing plutonium production in a heavy water reactor, in this research, changing the fuel from natural uranium to thorium-uranium mixed f...
متن کاملNeutronic Study of Two Reactor Cores Cooled with Light and Heavy Water Using Computation Method
Most HWRs currently use natural uranium fuel. Using enriched uranium fuel results in a significant improvement in fuel cycle costs and uranium utilization. On the other hand, reactivity changes of HWRs over the full range of operating conditions from cold shutdown to full power are small. This reduces the required reactivity worth of control devices and minimizes local flux distribution perturb...
