A comparison of bounding approach with isotopic correction factors and Monte Carlo sampling in burnup credit method [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2021 One of the methodologies used in criticality safety analysis is burnup credit method, which allows considering fuel burnup in models with spent fuel. This removes excessive conservatism from the analysis, but it also brings new uncertainties originating ...

Practical research of free standing rack (Seismic experiment study on full scale free standing rack)
Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015 The spent fuel taken out of a plant reactor is temporarily stored in a spent fuel rack. This fuel will often have to be stored in the rack for long periods before it can be moved to a reprocessing facility. Therefore, the spent fuel rack must have a high

Thermal-hydraulic analysis of loss-of-cooling accident in spent fuel pool of Bushehr NPP using the RELAP5 and MELCOR [PDF]
مجله علوم و فنون هستهای, 2020 Following the Fukushima Daiichi accident, the simulation of accidents related to the Spent Fuel Pool (SFP) became more important due to the high content of long-lived radionuclides, and lack of the protection by the pressure vessel despite its low decay ...
