High Performance Fuel Design for Next Generation PWRs Appendices B-I to FY-02 Annual Report
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Center for Advanced Nuclear Energy Systems. Nuclear Fuel Cycle Program, 2003-08)
B.1.1 VIPRE modeling of PWR core with annular fuel:
Optimization studies in the first year used an isolated channel and models for MDNBR analyses. These analyses provided sufficient knowledge of potential thermal hydraulic ...
Optimization of the LWR Nuclear Fuel Cycle for Minimum Waste Production
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Center for Advanced Nuclear Energy Systems. Nuclear Fuel Cycle Program, 2003-10)
The once through nuclear fuel cycle adopted by the majority of countries with operating
commercial power reactors imposes a number of concerns. The radioactive waste created in the
once through nuclear fuel cycle has to ...
High Performance Fuel Design for Next Generation PWRs 2nd Annual Report
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Center for Advanced Nuclear Energy Systems. Nuclear Fuel Cycle Program, 2003-08)
The overall objective of this NERI project is to examine the potential for a high performance advanced fuel design for Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs), which would accommodate a substantial increase of core power density ...
