Development of a 37-element fuel bundle for the production of molybdenum-99 in CANDU power reactors.
(2014-08-01)
In this study, the potential use of CANDU power reactors for the production of Mo-99 is assessed. Five different modifications of a 37-element fuel bundle that could be used for the production of Mo-99 in existing CANDU ...
Leakage-corrected discontinuity factors for a second-generation Th-Pu pressure-tube SCWR.
(2014-08-01)
The neutron flux throughout a reactor core should be calculated, ideally, by solving the neutron transport equation for a highly detailed geometric model of the core. Since this is computationally impractical, approximate ...
Moderator displacers for reducing coolant void reactivity in CANDU reactors: a neutronics scoping study.
(2014-08-01)
When the coolant is voided in a CANDU lattice, the net reactivity change is positive, due primarily to the fact that the coolant and moderator are separated and the coolant volume is much smaller than the moderator volume. ...
