Abstract This paper presents the validation of MCS code for critical safety analysis with burnup credit spent fuel casks. The process in this work considers five benchmark problem sets, which consist total 80 experiments having MOX fuels from International Criticality Safety Benchmark Evaluation Project (ICSBEP). similarity use sensitivity and uncertainty tool TSUNAMI SCALE was used to determin...

This race is particularly visible in the automotive field. Companies around the globe are vying to build a new, less polluting automobile engine that does not run on gasoline. In the US, for instance, General Motors (GM) spent over US$1 billion on developing an electric car that runs on a hydrogen fuel cell. It originally chose hydrogen fuel as the basis for the engine. Yet mass production of a...

Considering the unique operation of each nuclear power plant and lack BWR fuel examination data after dry storage, Taiwan Power Company Institute Nuclear Energy Research conduct "The Fuel Storage Demonstration Project in Taiwan" to collect characteristics under storage. In this project, rods among different designs venders will be loaded into a simulated storage cask for 10 years. Different tem...
