  1. 1. On measurement and monitoring of reactivity in subcritical reactor systems

    Author : Carl Berglöf; Janne Wallenius; Vasily Arzhanov; Massimo Salvatores; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; reactor; ADS; accelerator-driven systems; subcriticality determination; noise techniques; pulsed neutron source; reactivity monitoring; Nuclear physics; Kärnfysik;

    Abstract : Accelerator-driven systems have been proposed for incineration of transuranic elements from spent nuclear fuel. For safe operation of such facilities, a robust method for reactivity monitoring is required. Experience has shown that the performance of reactivity measurement methods in terms of accuracy and applicability is highly system dependent. READ MORE

  2. 2. Multiscale modeling of nitride fuels

    Author : Antoine Claisse; Pär Olsson; Janne Wallenius; Per Söderlind; Paul Blair; Paul Erhart; Natalia Skorodumova; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Uranium Nitride Ab Initio Modelling; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Nitride fuels have always been considered a good candidate for GENIV reactors, as well as space reactors, due to their high fissile density, highthermal conductivity and high melting point. In these concepts, not beingcompatible with water is not a significant problem. READ MORE

  3. 3. Development of Encapsulated UN-UO₂ Accident Tolerant Fuel

    Author : Diogo Ribeiro Costa; Pär Olsson; Janne Wallenius; Simon Middleburgh; Magnus Limbäck; Denise Adorno Lopes; Ho Jin Ryu; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Accident tolerant fuel; UN-UO2 composite fuel; coating technology; powder coating; chemical vapour deposition CVD ; physical vapour deposition PVD ; UN spheres; spark plasma sintering; Kärnenergiteknik; Nuclear Engineering;

    Abstract : Accident tolerant fuels (ATFs) are designed to endure a severe accident in the reactor core longer than the standard UO2-Zr alloy systems used in light water reactors (LWRs). Composite fuels such as UN-UO2 are being considered as an ATF concept to address the lower oxidation resistance of the UN fuel from a safety perspective for use in LWRs, whilst improving the in-reactor behaviour of the UO2 fuel.

  4. 4. Accelerator-driven systems : safety and kinetics

    Author : Marcus Eriksson; Janne Wallenius; Hamid Aït Abderrrahim; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nuclear physics; Kärnfysik; Nuclear physics; Kärnfysik;

    Abstract : The accelerator-driven system (ADS) is recognized as a promising system for the purpose of nuclear waste transmutation and minimization of spent fuel radiotoxicity. The primary cause for this derives from its accelerator-driven, sub-critical operating state, which introduces beneficial safety-related features allowing for application of cores employing fuel systems containing pure transuranics or minor actinides, thereby offering increased incineration rate of waste products and minimal deployment of advanced (and expensive) partitioning and transmutation technologies.
