CAP1400 Fuel Assembly Development and PWR Fuel Assembly Technology Progress in China

open access: yesVolume 3: Nuclear Fuel and Material, Reactor Physics and Transport Theory; Innovative Nuclear Power Plant Design and New Technology Application, 2017
In 1990s the first generation of PWR fuel assembly FA300 was developed in China. With constantly design improvements over the following 20 years, three types of FA300 fuel assemblies have been developed with max fuel assembly average burnup reach 40000 MWd/tU and successfully used in 300MWe PWRs.

Nuclear Fuel Assemblies and Fuel Debris Monitor for Characterization of Fuel Assemblies for Final Storage

Volume 1: Low/Intermediate-Level Radioactive Waste Management; Spent Fuel, Fissile Material, Transuranic and High-Level Radioactive Waste Management, 2013
NUKEM monitor FAMOS is designed to measure the burn up of fuel assemblies (FA’s) and allows the calculation of the content of fissile material and other actinides. The knowledge of the isotopic composition and activities of FA’s is required for a safe handling and storage of the elements.
