High performance Monte Carlo reactor core analysis (HPMC)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

"Design and safety analysis of nuclear reactors is based on extensive use of computer codes for the coupled calculation of time-dependend neutron transport, thermal-hydraulics and burnup.State-of-the-art methods use deterministic techniques to solve the neutronics equations, which require various approximations for a full core:a limited number of energy groups, application of diffusion theory inst ...

European Gas Cooled Fast Reactor (GoFastR)

Start date: Mar 1, 2010, End date: Feb 28, 2013,

Fast reactors have the unique ability to be sustainable by, not only being able to generate their own fuel, but through being able to burn minor actinides to reduce the quantity and radiotoxicity of nuclear wastes. The latter ability enables fast reactors to not only burn the minor actinides produced by themselves but, in addition, the minor actinides arising from legacy wastes and thermal reactor ...
