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 کاملExperimental Approach to Flow Field Evaluation in Upper Plenum of Reactor Vessel for Innovative Sodium Cooled Fast Reactor
In Japan Atomic Energy Agency, an innovative sodium cooled fast reactor of 1500MWe class, JSFR, has been investigated on the Fast Reactor Cycle Technology Development project. A compact reactor vessel (R/V) and a column type upper inner structure with a radial slit for an arm of a fuel-handling machine are adopted. These result in increase of the spatial-averaged velocity on the horizontal cros...
متن کاملStructure determination of medium-sized sodium clusters.
Sodium cluster anions Na(n)(-) with n = 39-350 have been studied by low temperature photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT). The highly structured experimental spectra are in excellent agreement with the electronic density of states (DOS) of the DFT lowest energy structures. Even for the largest sizes, a pronounced sensitivity of the DOS on fine geometric details could be...
متن کاملCore Design and Deployment Strategy of Heavy Water Cooled Sustainable Thorium Reactor
Our previous studies on water cooled thorium breeder reactor based on matured pressurized water reactor (PWR) plant technology concluded that reduced moderated core by arranging fuel pins in a triangular tight lattice array and using heavy water as coolant is appropriate for achieving better breeding performance and higher burn-up simultaneously [1–6]. One optimum core that produces 3.5 GW ther...
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...
