Journal ArticleDOI
Neutronic performance of uranium nitride composite fuels in a PWR
Nicholas R. Brown,A.L. Aronson,Michael Todosow,Ryan A. Brito,Ryan A. Brito,Kenneth J. McClellan +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, an operational assessment of four different candidate composite materials was performed for nominal conditions in a reference PWR with Zr-based cladding, and the impact of UN porosity on the operational performance was assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neutronic evaluation of a PWR with fully ceramic microencapsulated fuel. Part I: Lattice benchmarking, cycle length, and reactivity coefficients
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of the lattice-level neutronic study of doubly heterogeneous FCM fuel were presented, and the results showed that the linear reactivity model does not provide a good estimate of the fuel cycle length, due primarily to nonlinear reactivity behavior at high burn-up (>800 effective full power days).
Journal ArticleDOI
Neutronic evaluation of a PWR with fully ceramic microencapsulated fuel. Part II: Nodal core calculations and preliminary study of thermal hydraulic feedback
TL;DR: In this paper, a reference full-core model of an advanced PWR with fully ceramic microencapsulated (FCM) fuel and the response of the PWR to a reactivity insertion accident (RIA) is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Examining the inherent safety of prism, SAFR, and the MHTGR
Intercomparison of results for a pwr rod ejection accident
TL;DR: In this article, the uncertainty in best-estimate calculations of the local fuel enthalpy during rod ejection accident was analyzed using results from PARCS, BARS, and CRONOS2 codes developed in the US, the Russian Federation, and France, respectively.
