易裂变材料运输过程中重要的安全问题之一是临界安全。在对运输货包进行临界安全分析中必须要同时考虑多货包阵列形式、事故后货包损伤对临界安全影响、最佳水慢化条件等因素。本文采用MCNP 程序针对CEFR-MOX新燃料组件运输货包进行了临界安全计算。计算结果表明:MCNP程序(采用核截面库为ENDF/B-V库)对本问题的次临界限值为0.924 6;正常运输条件下无限个运输货包的最大keff值为0.574 4,运输事故条件下无限个运输货包的最大keff值为0.659 7。根据临界安全指数的定义,确定CEFR-MOX新燃料组件运输货包的临界安全指数为0。 相似文献

第4代核能系统主要候选堆型之一的超高温气冷反应堆(very-high-temperature reactor,简称VHTR)氦气出口温度要求大于1 000℃;从经济性考虑,模块式高温气冷堆的单堆功率愈高愈好,燃料的燃耗深度也愈高愈好,这些对近代低富集度3层包覆颗粒(modern LEU TRISO particles)燃料元件提出了更高燃耗深度和耐更高温的要求.为满足上述要求,本文介绍了ZrC层代替包覆燃料颗粒的SiC层、UCO(UO2 UC2)核芯代替包覆燃料颗粒的UO2核芯和进一步降低现有低富集度3层包覆颗粒SiC层破损率的高温气冷堆燃料元件的研究和发展. 相似文献

The CANDLE burnup is a new reactor burnup concept, where the distributions of fuel nuclide densities, neutron flux, and power density move with the same constant speed along the core axis from bottom to top (or from top to bottom) of the core and without any change in their shapes. It can be applied easily to a block-type high temperature gas cooled reactor (HTGR) using an appropriate burnable poison with a high neutron absorption cross section mixed with uranium oxide fuel. In this study, natural gadolinium is used as burnable poison. In the present paper, the simulation of the burnup for the steady state and the startup is performed.
For the steady state simulation with direct solutions of steady state nuclide densities as inputs, the difference between the results of the steady state analysis and the simulation analysis is very small. It confirms that the steady state analysis is correct. When the initial core is constructed from easily available nuclides, the simulation result gives a reactivity change of 1.7% at a burnup time of 0.7 years. 相似文献

In the framework of a large Research and Development programme devoted to High Temperature Reactors (HTR) and set up in the CEA from 2000 on, we will address ourselves to the issue of coated fuel performance and design. Although HTR fuel main features have been established for a long time, we need today to reassess the fuel design to make sure that it meets the requirements linked to the most recent projects of High Temperature Reactors. Thus, in collaboration with Framatome and in connection with the Gas Turbine - Modular Helium Reactor (GT-MHR) international project, we are planning to perform parametric thermal and mechanical studies, regarding different particle design options (kernel diameter, layers composition and thickness) and seeking optima concerning particle leak tightness and fission product retention. But to initiate such studies, we have first of all to define the design bases and the requirements for HTR fuel, in terms of kernel composition (fissile element, oxide stoechiometry, enrichment), particle and compact geometry (dimensions, particle volume fraction in the graphite matrix), power density, cooling gas temperature and irradiation conditions (burnup, fast fluence). 相似文献

AbstractThree Latin American countries which operate research reactors, Argentina, Brazil and Chile, have joined efforts to improve the capability in the management of spent fuel elements from the reactors operated in the region. As a step in this direction, a packaging for the transport of irradiated fuel from research reactors was designed by a tri-national team and a half scale model for materials test reactor fuel was constructed in Argentina and tested in Brazil. Three test campaigns have been carried out so far, covering both normal conditions of transportation and hypothetical accident conditions.In this paper both the numerical modelling and mechanical tests to select adequate shock absorbers materials are presented. Results of these tasks are used to improve the cask design. 相似文献

Modular nuclear reactor systems are being developed around the world for new missions among which is cogeneration for industries and remote areas. Like existing fossil energy counterpart in these markets, a nuclear plant would need to demonstrate the feasibility of load follow including (1) the reliability to generate power and heat simultaneously and alone and (2) the flexibility to vary cogeneration rates concurrent to demand changes. This article reports the results of JAEA's evaluation on the high temperature gas reactor (HTGR) to perform these duties. The evaluation results in a plant design based on the materials and design codes developed with JAEA's operating test reactor and from additional equipment validation programs. The 600 MWt-HTGR plant generates electricity efficiently by gas turbine and 900°C heat by a topping heater. The heater couples via a heat transport loop to industrial facility that consumes the high temperature heat to yield heat product such as hydrogen fuel, steel, or chemical. Original control methods are proposed to automate transition between the load duties. Equipment challenges are addressed for severe operation conditions. Performance limits of cogeneration load following are quantified from the plant system simulation to a range of bounding events including a loss of either load and a rapid peaking of electricity. 相似文献

We report the development of a thermal-hydraulic analysis code (called TAC-DS: Thermal-hydraulic Analysis Code for Dry-storage System). The spent fuel dry-storage system of High-Temperature Reactor Pebble-bed Modules in China is simulated using the TAC-DS to confirm the design basis and to analyze the transient behavior following an accident involving blower failure. The TAC-DS includes mathematical models for the air-coolant system, heat conduction within spent fuel canisters, and thermal radiation between heat structures. The time-dependent hydrodynamic model of the TAC-DS is formulated using one-dimensional mass, momentum and energy equations, and solved using semi-implicit finite-difference scheme. The complicated heat transfer models of heat structure are incorporated into the hydrodynamic system implicitly with enclosure correlations. Code is written in Fortran 90. A validation calculation is performed by solving a simplified model. Thermal performance of the buffer storage region in the system under forced ventilation scenario is studied with TAC-DS to validate the design requirement, as well as to provide the initial condition for the transient analysis. Blower failure accident is studied to assess the performance of the safety features during the transient accident. Since the code is modular, TAC-DS can be easily modified and applied to other spent fuel dry-storage system in the future. 相似文献

This paper describes experiences and present status of research and development works for the high temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) fuel in Japan. Recently, Very High Temperature Reactor (VHTR) is evaluated highly worldwide, and is a principal candidate for the Generation IV reactor systems. In Japan, HTGR fuel fabrication technologies have been developed through the High Temperature Engineering Test Reactor (HTTR) project in Japan Atomic Energy Agency since 1960’s. In total about 2 tons of uranium of the HTTR fuel has been fabricated successfully and its excellent quality has been confirmed through the long-term high temperature operation. Based on the HTTR fuel technologies, SiC TRISO fuel has been newly developed for burnup extension targeted VHTR. For ZrC-TRISO coated fuel as an advanced fuel designs, R&Ds for fabrication and inspection have been carried out in JAEA. The irradiation with the Japanese uniform stoichiometric ZrC coating has been completed in the cooperation with Oak Ridge National Laboratory of the United States. 相似文献

A packaging for the transport of irradiated fuel from research reactors was designed by a group of researchers to improve the capability in the management of spent fuel elements from the reactors operated in the region. Two half scale models for MTR fuel were constructed and tested so far and a third one for both MTR and TRIGA fuels will be constructed and tested next. Four test campaigns have been carried out, covering both normal and hypothetical accident conditions of transportation. The thermal test is part of the requirements for the qualification of transportation packages for nuclear reactors spent fuel elements. In this paper, both the numerical modelling and experimental thermal tests performed are presented and discussed. The cask is briefly described as well as the finite element model developed and the main adopted hypotheses for the thermal phenomena. The results of both numerical runs and experimental tests are discussed as a tool to validate the thermal modelling. The impact limiters, attached to the cask for protection, were not modelled. 相似文献
