An evaluation of the fast-mixed spectrum reactor
(Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Nuclear Engineering, [1980], 1980)
An independent evaluation of the neutronic characteristics of a gas-cooled fast-mixed spectrum reactor (FMSR) core design has been performed. A benchmark core configuration for an early FMSR design was provided by Brookhaven ...
The use of burnable poison to improve uranium utilization in PWRs
(Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Energy Laboratory, 1982, 1982)
A methodology based on the linear reactivity model of core behavior has been developed and employed to evaluate fuel management tactics for improving uranium utilization in Pressurized Water Reactors in a once-through fuel ...
