Dynamics and control of molten-salt breeder reactor

Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2017
Preliminary results of the dynamic analysis of a two-fluid molten-salt breeder reactor (MSBR) system are presented. Based on an earlier work on the preliminary dynamic model of the concept, the model presented here is nonlinear and has been revised to ...

Characterisation of molten salts for their application to Molten Salt Reactors

PAM Review Energy Science & Technology, 2019
Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are one of the six Gen (IV) reactor designs chosen by the Generation IV International Forum for further development. A key area of concern for MSRs is the selection of molten salt composition. Parameters such as heat capacity, thermal conductivity, and viscosity are essential to consider when selecting a salt mixture for use
