Sensitivity Analysis and Uncertainty Propagation from Basic Nuclear Data to Reactor Physics and Safety Relevant Parameters
Reliable knowledge of the uncertainties in important reactor parameters, like criticality, radiation load on the reactor components, neutron/gamma ray flux, nuclear heating and dose are crucial for nuclear safety concerns. Uncertainties are introduced either through the calculational algorithms or through the data uncertainties. The paper addresses the uncertainties in the reactor parameters li...
متن کاملUncertainty propagation in nuclear forensics
Uncertainty propagation formulae are presented for age dating in support of nuclear forensics. The age of radioactive material in this context refers to the time elapsed since a particular radionuclide was chemically separated from its decay product(s). The decay of the parent radionuclide and ingrowth of the daughter nuclide are governed by statistical decay laws. Mathematical equations allow ...
متن کاملThe 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 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 کاملShape Optimization of a Sodium Fast Reactor Core
Résumé. On applique dans cet article une méthode d'optimisation géométrique dans le cadre de la conception d'un c÷ur de réacteur SFR dans le but de minimiser une contre réaction thermique connue sous le nom d'e et de vidange sodium. Lorsqu'une augmentation de température survient, ce type de réacteur peut être sujet à une forte augmentation de réactivité, un paramètre clé dans le contrôle de la...
