NEUTRON-PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND FUEL UTILIZATION IN A SODIUM-COOLED FAST REACTOR WITH HIGH-DENSITY FUEL AT THE INITIAL STAGE OF THE TRANSITION TO A CLOSED CYCLE

摘要

The results of neutron-physical investigations of a fast reactor using high-density fuel (UC) at the initial stage of the transition to a closed fuel cycle are presented. Validation is given for the possibility of making the transition to a closed fuel cycle with self-supply of fissile nuclei starting with the first recycle.
