Simultaneous characterization of O, C, 6Li, and medium-weight impurities concentration in PbLi by ion beam analysis

Nuclear Materials and Energy
Some Breeding Blanket concepts in nuclear fusion reactors contemplate the use of eutectic Pb84.3 Li15.7 (PbLi) because it simultaneously acts as Tritium (T) breeder (part of the reactor fuel) and neutron multiplier.

Hydrodynamics coupled circulating-fuel reactor equations in comoving frame and their analytical solutions for molten salt reactors

Nuclear Engineering and Technology
Effects of relative motion between moving fuel and neutrons are usually not considered in the analysis of Circulating Fuel Reactors (CFRs). In this study, we formulate neutron transport equation for CFRs in a hydrodynamic representation in terms of ...

Economic Evaluation on the MOX Fuel in the Closed Fuel Cycle

Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, 2012
The mixed oxide (MOX) fuel is one of the most important fuels for the advanced reactors in the future. It is flexible to be applied either in the thermal reactor like pressurized water reactor (PWR) or in the fast reactor (FR).

Long-Term Use of Nuclear Energy from the Aspect of Economy and Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Energies
Conventional sources of electricity are limited and they pollute the Earth, so it is necessary to think about an additional source of electricity in the future. Nuclear power is one of the options. Two scenarios using different shares of nuclear power in
