Proceedings of a conference on new nuclear reactor designs and innovative fuels.

This report describes in particular an exercise based on a realistic, multiple-recycle scenario, which followed plutonium through five generations of recycling in a PWR.

This volume reports on the benchmark results of a physics code test for the recycling of plutonium as PuO2/UO2 mixed-oxide (MOX) fuel in boiling water reactors (BWRs) compared to pressurised water reactors (PWRs.

This conference proceedings discusses the reliability of the accelerator and the impact of beam interruptions in Accelerator Driven Systems; spallation target design characteristics and their impact; characteristics of a subcritical system driven by...

Following the completion of six benchmark exercises with uranium oxide fuels irradiated in pressurised water reactors (PWRs) and boiling water reactors (BWRs), the present report concerns mixed uranium and plutonium oxide (MOX) fuels irradiated in PWRs.

Following the completion of six benchmark exercises with uranium oxide (UOX) fuels irradiated in pressurised water reactors (PWRs) and boiling water reactors (BWRs), this report concerns mixed uranium and plutonium oxide (MOX) fuels irradiated in PWRs.
