Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The original core design for the Clinch River Breeder Reactor Plant (CRBRP) was a homogeneous core, as are essentially all of present day liquid metal fast breeder reactors. A study was undertaken to determine if a rearrangement of the core into a heterogeneous configuration, with fertile elements interspersed within the fueled zone, would improve the breeding ratio significantly without excessive adverse effects on other aspects of the design. The result of the study was that the heterogeneous concept improved not only the breeding ratio and doubling time, but also the control assembly worth, core restraint response, and the fuel cycle cost. This paper describes the design evolution and the major effects of the change from a homogeneous to a heterogeneous core in the Clinch River Breeder Reactor Plant.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clinch River Breeder Reactor Plant (CRBRP) Project formed a Control Room Task Force to ensure that lessons learned from the Three Mile Island accident are incorporated into the design. The charter for the Control Room Task Force was to review plant operations from the control room. The focus was on the man-machine interface to ensure that the systems' designs and operator actions meshed to properly support plant operation during normal and off-normal conditions. Specific items included for review are described. This paper describes the methodology utilized to accomplish the Task Forces' objectives and the results of the review.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present day design challenges faced by the Clinch River Breeder Reactor Plant engineer result from two causes. The first cause is aspiration to achieve a design that will operate at conditions which are desirable for future LMFBRs in order for them to achieve low power costs and good breeding. The second cause is the licensing impact. Although licensing the CRBRP won't eliminate future licensing effort, many licensing questions will have been resolved and precedents set for the future LMFBR industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Upper Internals Structure (UIS) is located above the core and is supported from the head at four locations. It is designed to perform the following primary functions: provide secondary core holddown in the event of a malfunction of the core hydraulic holddown system; provide support for routing all in-vessel instrumentation to core assemblies; maintain alignment between the core assemblies, the UIS and the closure head; provide guidance and crossflow protection for the control rod drivelines; and mix/duct flow to the upper region of the vessel outlet plenum to minimize rapid temperature changes to components during a reactor trip transient. In accomplishing these functions, the UIS will experience a sodium environment with temperatures up to 1200°F (649°C), and as many as 7 x 108 cycles of fluid temperature fluctuations up to 250°F (121°C) at full power operation. It must be designed to survive these conditions in combination with seismic and flow-induced vibration loadings for its 30 year design life. The design program of designing to controlled functional requirements and design conditions is discussed. Included is a description of the significant parts of the design and the approach used to balance the requirement of tight joints. The thermal and hydraulic environment including the results of a comprehensive test program are discussed. The test program results establish the basis of the thermal boundary used in the structural evaluation, and the UIS vibration characteristics. A summary of the areas which have required design changes is included with a summary of the structural evaluation of these changes.
