The Sodium-cooled Fast Reactor (sfr)
The Sodium-cooled fast reactor (SFR) features a closed fuel cycle for efficient conversion of fertile uranium and management of minor actinides. A full actinide-recycle fuel cycle is envisioned with two major options: One involves intermediatesized (150 to 500 MWe) sodium-cooled fast reactors with uranium-plutonium-minor-actinidezirconium metal alloy fuel, supported by a fuel cycle based on pyr...
متن کاملSupercritical Water-cooled Nuclear Reactors: Review and Status
Modern concepts of nuclear reactors cooled with supercritical water are presented together with a short history. The supercritical water-cooled CANDU ((CANada Deuterium Uranium) is a registered trademark of AECL) reactor concept is fully discussed. Also, thermophysical properties at critical and supercritical pressures as well as heat transfer and hydraulic resistance at these conditions are pr...
متن کاملLead-cooled Fast Reactor (lfr): Overview and Perspectives
he GIF Technology Roadmap [1] identified the Lead-cooled Fast Reactor (LFR) as a technology with great potential to meet the small-unit electricity needs of remote sites while also offering advantages as a large system for grid-connected power stations. The LFR features a fast-neutron spectrum and a closed fuel cycle for efficient conversion of fertile uranium. It can also be used as a burner o...
متن کاملA domain-specific analysis system for examining nuclear reactor simulation data for light-water and sodium-cooled fast reactors
Building a new generation of fission reactors in the United States presents many technical and regulatory challenges. One important challenge is the need to share and present results from new high-fidelity, high-performance simulations in an easily usable way. Since modern multiscale, multi-physics simulations can generate petabytes of data, they will require the development of new techniques a...
متن کاملTritium Analysis of a Water-cooled Solid Breeder Blanket for Iter*
Mass, (lo6 g) Volume, (m3) Thickness, (cm) T. Gen. Rate, (g/day) Abstract: This paper presents quantitative predict,ions for the tritium release and inventory in a water-cooled solid breeder blanket for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) obtained from the tritium transport code MISTRAL [l] recently developed at UCLA. The blanket consists of a layout assembly of solid br...
