The paper considers and systematises the options of fuel assemblies (FAs) for the WWER-1000 reactor. In the Serpent neutron-physics code, an infinite-height fuel assembly with six fuel pins is modelled using the U49G6 pattern used in the WWER-1000 «large

Fully ceramic microencapsulated fuel (FCM) is employed in the supercritical CO2 (S-CO2)-cooled reactor as accident tolerant fuel (ATF). Although the fuel and the assembly substrate contain SiC, the assembly cannot be sufficiently moderated due to the ...

Fuel Efficient Computation in Passive Self-Assembly [PDF]
In this paper we show that passive self-assembly in the context of the tile self-assembly model is capable of performing fuel efficient, universal computation.

Famos III, burn-up measurement system suitable for la Hague acceptance criteria control [PDF]
Fuel Assembly Monitoring System (FAMOS) was developed to set up a NDA method for the characterization of light water reactor fuel assemblies. The applied active/passive monitoring system made total characterization of fuel assemblies possible, without ...

Chemically Fueled Self‐Assembly in Biology and Chemistry [PDF]
AbstractLife is a non‐equilibrium state of matter maintained at the expense of energy. Nature uses predominantly chemical energy stored in thermodynamically activated, but kinetically stable, molecules. These high‐energy molecules are exploited for the synthesis of other biomolecules, for the activation of biological machinery such as pumps and motors,

DROP IMPACT ANALYSIS OF PLATE-TYPE FUEL ASSEMBLY IN RESEARCH REACTOR
In this research, a drop impact analysis of a fuel assembly in a research reactor is carried out to determine whether the fuel plate integrity is maintained in a drop accident.

Fluid Damping in Fuel Assemblies
Damping is known to be a major parameter in the seismic design of nuclear facilities. Of special interest is the case of fuel assemblies in PWR plants, which, unlike other components, are submitted to axial flows: it has been known since the late 80s that their frequency response to lateral excitations was largely dependent on the flow velocity, and ...

An anisotropic numerical model for thermal hydraulic analyses: application to liquid metal flow in fuel assemblies [PDF]
A CFD analysis has been carried out to study the thermal–hydraulic behavior of liquid metal coolant in a fuel assembly of triangular lattice. In order to obtain fast and accurate results, the isotropic two-equation RANS approach is often used in nuclear
