The Feasibility of Multidimensional CFD Applied to Calandria System in the Moderator of CANDU-6 PHWR Using Commercial and Open-Source Codes

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, 2016
The moderator system of CANDU, a prototype of PHWR (pressurized heavy-water reactor), has been modeled in multidimension for the computation based on CFD (computational fluid dynamics) technique. Three CFD codes are tested in modeled hydrothermal systems

Neutronic evaluation of CANDU-6 core using reprocessed fuels

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences, 2020
The spent fuel from a PWR still contains some amount of fissile materials depending on their initial enrichment and the burnup. Thus, spent fuel from PWRs containing about 1.5% of fissile material could be used as fuel for CANDU reactors after some ...
