The selective use of thorium and heterogeneity in uranium-efficient pressurized water reactors
(Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Energy Laboratory, 1982, 1982)Systematic procedures have been developed and applied to assess the uranium utilization potential of a broad range of options involving the selective use of thorium in Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs) operating on the ... -
Sensitivity analysis of the reactor safety study

Sensitivity study of the assembly averaged thermal-hydraulic models of the MEKIN computer code in power transients / by Thomas Rodack [and] Lothar Wolf
(Cambridge, Mass. : Dept. of Nuclear Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1977], 1977)The thermal-hydraulic (T-H) models and solution schemes employed by the MEKIN computer code have been examined. The effects of T-H input parameters on- predicted fuel temperatures and coolant densities were determined in ... -

A Solid breeder tokamak blanket designed for failure mode operation
(Cambridge, Mass. : Fusion Technology Program, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1977, 1977)The objective of this study was to evaluate a new concept for a Tokamak type fusion reactor blanket. The design was based on using a packed bed of lithium aluminate as the breeding material with helium gas cooling. The ... -
Solution of the space-dependent reactor kinetics equations in three dimensions
(Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Nuclear Engineering, [1971], 1971)A general class of two-step alternating-direction semi-implicit methods is proposed for the approximate solution of the semi-discrete form of the space-dependent reactor kinetics equations. An exponential transformation ... -
