Sensitivity analysis of minor actinides transmutation to physical and technological parameters

Nitride Fuel and Pyrochemical Process Developments for Transmutation of Minor Actinides in Jaeri

The Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI) has proposed the concept of the transmutation of minor actinides (MA: Np, Am and Cm) with accelerator-driven systems (ADS), where MA nitride is adopted as a fuel material of a sub-critical core, because nitride fuel has the advantage of accommodating various MAs with a wide range of composition besides superior thermal and neutronic properties....

Minor Actinide Transmutation

Comparative Assessment of the Transmutation Efficiency of Plutonium and Minor Actinides in Fusion/fission Hybrids and Ads

A preliminary comparative assessment relevant to the transmutation efficiency of plutonium and minor actinides has been performed in the case of ANSALDO’s Energy Amplifier Demonstration Facility based on molten lead-bismuth eutectic cooling, classical MOX-fuel technology and operating at 80 MWth. The neutronic calculations presented in this paper are a result of a state-of-the-art computer code...

the differential effects of debate and media analysis as relate to enhancing efl learners critical thinking ability and writing performances

critical thinking ability has an important role in education. accordingly, scholars around the world are searching for new ways for teaching and improving students critical thinking ability. in line with the studies in efl contexts supporting the positive relationship between critical thinking and writing performances, this study investigated the differential effects of halverson’s critical thi...

determination of some physical and mechanical properties red bean

چکیده: در این تحقیق، برخی خواص فیزیکی و مکانیکی لوبیا قرمز به-صورت تابعی از محتوی رطوبت بررسی شد. نتایج نشان داد که رطوبت بر خواص فیزیکی لوبیا قرمز شامل طول، عرض، ضخامت، قطر متوسط هندسی، قطر متوسط حسابی، سطح تصویر شده، حجم، چگالی توده، تخلخل، وزن هزار دانه و زاویه ی استقرار استاتیکی در سطح احتمال 1 درصد اثر معنی داری دارد. به طوری که با افزایش رطوبت از 54/7 به 12 درصد بر پایه خشک طول، عرض، ضخام...
