This book was released on 2012 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sodium Fast Reactors (SFR) show promise as an effective way to produce clean safe nuclear power while properly managing the fuel cycle. Accurate computer modeling is an important step in the design and eventual licensing of SFRs. The objective of this work was to couple a model for metal fuel performance to a sub-channel analysis code to more precisely predict critical phenomena that could lead to pin failure for steady-state and transient scenarios. The fuel code that was used is the recently developed and benchmarked FEAST-METAL code. The sub-channel analysis code that was selected is COBRA-IV-I. This code was updated with current correlations for sodium for pressure drop, mixing, and heat transfer. The new code, COBRA-IV-I-MIT was then validated with experimental data from the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) 19-Pin Bundle, the Toshiba 37-Pin Bundle, and the Westinghouse Advanced Reactors Division (WARD) 61-Pin Bundle. Important topics that were addressed for coupling the codes include the following. The importance of azimuthal effects in the fuel pin: FEAST only evaluates the fuel in two-dimensions, assuming azimuthal symmetry; however, coupling to COBRA produces an azimuthal temperature distribution. The acceptability of assuming a two-dimensional fuel rod with an average temperature was examined. Furthermore, how the fuel pin evolves over time affects the assembly geometry. How well a two-dimensional fuel rod allows for an accurate description of the changing assembly geometry was also considered. Related to this was how the evolution of the assembly geometry affects its thermal hydraulic behavior, which determined the exact form of coupling between the codes. Ultimately one-way coupling was selected with azimuthal temperature averaging around the fuel pin. The codes were coupled using a wrapper, the COBRA And FEAST Executer (CAFE), written in the Python programming language. Data from EBR-II was used to confirm and verify CAFE. It was found that the number of axial nodes used in FEAST can have a large effect on the result. Finally FEAST was used to parametrically study three different pin designs: driver fuel, radial blanket, and tight pitch breed and bum fuel. This study provides data for pin expected life in assembly design.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nuclear fuel cycle is characterised by the wide range of scientific disciplines and technologies it employs. The development of ever more integrated processes across the many stages of the nuclear fuel cycle therefore confronts plant manufacturers and operators with formidable challenges. Nuclear fuel cycle science and engineering describes both the key features of the complete nuclear fuel cycle and the wealth of recent research in this important field. Part one provides an introduction to the nuclear fuel cycle. Radiological protection, security and public acceptance of nuclear technology are considered, along with the economics of nuclear power. Part two goes on to explore materials mining, enrichment, fuel element design and fabrication for the uranium and thorium nuclear fuel cycle. The impact of nuclear reactor design and operation on fuel element irradiation is the focus of part three, including water and gas-cooled reactors, along with CANDU and Generation IV designs. Finally, part four reviews spent nuclear fuel and radioactive waste management. With its distinguished editor and international team of expert contributors, Nuclear fuel cycle science and engineering provides an important review for all those involved in the design, fabrication, use and disposal of nuclear fuels as well as regulatory bodies and researchers in this field. Provides a comprehensive and holistic review of the complete nuclear fuel cycle Reviews the issues presented by the nuclear fuel cycle, including radiological protection and security, public acceptance and economic analysis Discusses issues at the front-end of the fuel cycle, including uranium and thorium mining, enrichment and fuel design and fabrication
