Book excerpt: This paper reviews some of the key programs on fuel technology within the CANDU power reactor owners' group. It begins with outlining the characteristics and design evolution of CANDU power reactor fuel, its performance, and defect mechanisms. The paper reviews the programs in two groups: the Fuel Technology Program and the Advanced Fuel Cycle programs. Key elements in these programs include studies of the effect of oxygen/metal ratio on fuel performance, corrosion protection, extended burnup irradiation, operational limits, fuel damage, fuel behavior modelling, decay heat removal, and the use of recovered uranium, spent pressurized-water reactor fuel, and low void reactivity fuel.

Book excerpt: A simple empirical model of activity and crud transport in the candu hts has been developed and its utility illustrated using station data. the model emphasizes the fundamental role played by the out-of-core deposits. the input parameters required by the model can be obtained from data from station artefact characterizations, radiation field measurements and oxi-probe measurements and single-tube decontaminations. the details of the model are illustrated using the "simple" example of 95zr transport, which is transported mainly as particles. the more challenging case of 60co transport is then used to highlight additional aspects of the model and to point out some of the areas where further work is required. the model provides insights into the effectiveness of the candu purification system. it has allowed order of magnitude estimates to be made of the effective deposition half-lives for radionuclide removal by the hts deposits; in particular: ? t1/2 (95zr) = 10 - 98 h ? t1/2 (60co) = 7 -62 min typical candu purification half-lives range from 50 minutes to several hours. this is short enough to compete effectively with hts surfaces for 95zr removal. at the highest flow rates, the one-hour half-life is short enough to have a measurable impact on 60co deposition; at longer purification half-lives, the impact on 60co deposition is likely small. it should be noted that 95zr is transported and deposited mainly as particles, while 60co is deposited mainly as a dissolved species. further work is required to determine if these half-lives can be generalized to all particulate and dissolved species. the model leads to an estimate for the efficiency of the main hts system for the removal of the different radionuclides from the circulating coolant. for 60co, this removal efficiency is in the range 0.28 to 2.5%. in most discussions of the purification system effectiveness, an implicit assumption has been that the hts deposits were highly efficient in removing dissolved species from the coolant. these values illustrate the error of that assumption. while the purification system receives only a very small flow compared to the steam generators (on the order of 0.1%), it is highly efficient (95 -100%). the main hts loop receives 99.9% of the flow, but is inefficient (on the order of 1%). the net result is that the two removal mechanisms are more closely matched than previously assumed. the pseudo-efficiency provides a link between this model and more mechanistic treatments of activity deposition. the hts deposit "full flow purification system" can be broken into components: outlet feeders, steam generators, inlet feeders. the utility of this sub-division has been demonstrated by calculating the effect of removing the steam generator deposits by decontamination on reactor face fields in the year immediately following the decontamination. the predicted factor of 3.0 increase in 60co deposition at the reactor face compares favourably with the increase observed at gentilly-2 after the siva-blast of a factor of 2.8. refinements to the model should enable the pseudo-efficiencies to be linked to hts parameters such as the iron deposition profile, information on the affinity of radionuclides for magnetite and for the outlet end-fittings, feeders and hot leg of the steam generator tubes where the deposits are much thinner, plus various geometric considerations (surface areas, diameters, fluid velocities) via more mechanistic models. some deficiencies in the existing station data were identified during the application of the model to 95zr and 60co. a series of measurements is recommended to obtain the data required to assess the model; in particular: ? develop a good set of deposition constants for all radionuclides of interest (especially 60co, 124sb and 95zr/95nb) including the contributions of dissolved and particulate species. ? develop a good set of purification system removal constants for all radionuclides of interest, including the contributions from dissolved and particulate species ? determine c, the coolant concentration, for all species of interest, including dissolved and particulate species.

Book excerpt: Pressurized Heavy Water Reactors: CANDU, the seventh volume in the JSME Series on Thermal and Nuclear Power Generation series, provides a comprehensive and complete review of a single type of reactor in a very accessible and practical way. The book presents the full lifecycle, from design and manufacturing to operation and maintenance, also covering fitness-for-service and long-term operation. It does not relate to any specific vendor-based technology, but rather provides a broad overview of the latest technologies from a variety of active locations which will be of great value to countries invested in developing their own nuclear programs. Including contemporary capabilities and challenges of nuclear technology, the book offers practical solutions to common problems faced, along with the safe and approved processes to reach suitable solutions. Professionals involved in nuclear power plant lifecycle assessment and researchers interested in the development and improvement of nuclear energy technologies will gain a deep understanding of PHWR nuclear reactor physics, chemistry and thermal-hydraulic properties. Provides a complete reference dedicated to the latest research on Pressurized Heavy Water Reactors and their economic and environmental benefits Goes beyond CANDU reactors to analyze the popular German and Indian designs, as well as plant design in Korea, Romania, China and Argentina Spans all phases of the nuclear power plant lifecycle, from design, manufacturing, operation, maintenance and long-term operation
