Delays in the construction of nuclear reactors due to licensing issues have been a problem across world, affecting projects Finland, France, and United States. Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) emerge as transition between Generations III+ IV order make energy more competitive with other sources, including renewables. In this study, SMR NuScale, one most promising today, is investigated for its conversion into U-233-producing reactor through Radkowsky seed-blanket fuel element concept, applied...
This work presents the feasibility studies to convert UO2 core of Westinghouse AP1000 reactor a U/Th aiming at fuel recycling. The focus is establish first which allows normal operation and investigate possible route for generating 233U converted named AP-Th1000 divided in three homogenous zones with different UO2/ThO2 mass proportions. reprocessing procedure envisioned separate fission products Pu isotopes, retain Uranium, use this material subsequent cycles complement required fissile U...
This paper presents an application of approximate relationship between the Doppler broadening function based on Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution and deformed generalized Kaniadakis distribution. The is effective temperature medium. to exemplary cases 238U, 232Th, 240Pu nuclides. straightforward implementation demonstrates its suitability as a tool for diverse cross sections values. These values decrease with anticipated attenuation peaks [[EQUATION]] value increases.
This article analyzes the SWOT Matrix for implementation of AP-Th1000 reactor with thorium fuel, aiming at a future replacement current nuclear reactors that use uranium as fuel by thorium. There was need an in-depth study national and international literature linked to Brazilian reality. After that, specific meetings were held detect all possible situations 4 main points matrix. During sessions, which averaged 1 hour, authors' industrial academic expertise demonstrated in competencies such...
O Pequeno Reator Modular baseado no CAREM (Central Argentina de Elementos Modulares) representa uma abordagem inovadora para a produção energia nuclear. Desenvolvidos na Argentina, esses reatores s
