Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reactor physics and fuel cycle studies, coordinated with heat transfer and material science and structural analysis work has indicated the feasibility potential of the coupled Fast-Mixed Spectrum Reactor (FMSR) concept. This concept employs what are considered reasonable extrapolations of present fast breeder reactor technology to achieve a once-through-and-store reactor fuel cycle. Since the fuel cycle for this reactor is intended to use only natural or depleted uranium for its equilibrium feed, the resultant reactor would have excellent anti-proliferation characteristics. It would also extend utilization of natural uranium resources by a factor of about 15 relative to LWR reactors when on its equilibrium fuel cycle; startup requirements would of course reduce this factor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report summarizes the results of an initial four-month feasibility study of the Fast-Mixed Spectrum Reactor (FMSR). Reactor physics, fuel cycle, and thermal-hydraulic analyses were performed on a reference design. These results when coupled to a fuel and materials evaluation performed in cooperation with the Argonne National laboratory indicate that the FMSR is feasible provided the fuels, cladding, and subassembly ducts can survive a peak fuel burnup of 15 to 20 atom percent heavy metal and peak fluences of 8 x 10/sub23/ (nvt> 0.1 MeV). the results of this short study have also provided a basis for exploring alternative designs requiring significantly lower peak burnup and fluences for their operation.

This book was released on 1980 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of the Initial Feasibility Study of the Fast Mixed Spectrum Reactor, a series of benchmark calculations were made to determine the sensitivity of the physics analysis to differences in methods and data. Argonne National Laboratory (ANL), the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) were invited to participate with Brookhaven National Laboratory in the analysis of a FMSR model prescribed by BNL. Detailed comparisons are made including a comprehensive study on the adequacy of the fission product treatments.

Book excerpt: The Fast Mixed Spectrum Reactor is a highly promising concept for a fast reactor with improved features of proliferation resistance, and excellent utilization of uranium resources. In technology, it can be considered to be a branch of fast breeder development, though its operation and implications are different from those of FBR'S in important respects. Successful development programs are required in several areas to bring FMSR to reality, but the payoff from a successful program can be high.
