Reactor Physics Analysis of a Tube-in-Duct Fuel Design for GFR Service

摘要

The parametric physics analyses of the TID fuelassembly described here, when coupled with thermalhydraulic models of the core allow rapid assessment ofthe tradeoffs between thermal and neutronic performance,thus accelerating the optimization of a core employing theTID fuel assembly design. A specific goal of 60 v/o fuelis established for use of UC fuel.
