The Integral Fast Reactor Concept: Physics of Operation and Safety
Nuclear Science and Engineering, 1988The Integral Fast Reactor concept employs a pool layout, a uranium-plutonium-zirconium metal alloy fuel, and a closed fuel cycle based on pyrometallurgical reprocessing and injection casting refabr...

Integrated fuel-cycle models for fast breeder reactors
Annals of Nuclear Energy, 1981Abstract Breeder-reactor fuel-cycle analysis can be divided into four different areas or categories. The first category concerns questions about the spatial variation of the fuel composition for single loading intervals. Questions of the variations in the fuel composition over several cycles represent a second category.

Integral measurements in a simulated fast breeder reactor blanket
Energy, 1979Abstract Much of the breeding of fissile material and a significant fraction of the energy production in proposed fast breeder reactors will occur in a blanket of fertile material surrounding the reactor core. Current uncertainties in neutron cross sections and calculational methods have much greater significance for blanket design than for core ...

Hypothetical integration of a fast reactor to the fuel cycle in Slovakia
Annals of Nuclear Energy, 2011Abstract The inspiration for dealing with the topic of fuel cycle back-end was attendance at a European project called RED-IMPACT – Impact of Partitioning Transmutation and Waste Reduction Technologies. This paper includes an image how to re-use energetic potential of stored spent fuel and at the same time how to effectively reduce spent fuel and ...

Plentiful energy and the Integral Fast Reactor story
International Journal of Nuclear Governance, Economy and Ecology, 2006The Integral Fast Reactor (IFR) was a concept that promised inexhaustible, clean, safe, proliferation-resistant energy, with waste that needed isolation for only hundreds of years rather than tens of thousands. The development of the IFR was abandoned by the US government in 1994, as it neared completion, because too many in the US Congress and ...

Integral Experiment Information for Fast Reactors
1982Critical Facilities and Measurements. A number of facilities designed to provide experimental data for fast reactor physics studies have been in operation around the world since the 1950s. The machines range in size from small systems that can be used for data testing and zone studies to large facilities capable of including core sizes typical of 1000 ...
