Economic analysis of 10-inch and 12-inch fuel element production for three separate conditions

PDF Version Also Available for Download.

Description

Three conditions representing various quantities of 10-inch and/or 12-inch fuel elements were presented by the Industrial Engineering Group, IPD, as a basis for initial estimates of economic incentive to partially convert the Production Fuels Section AlSi process to longer fuel elements for FY 1964. An earlier study (Ref. 1) pertained to 10-inch instead of 6-inch enriched fuels. The comparatively larger quantities of the 4 in. longer fuel for full E-N loading showed a larger payout than for the requirements shown in this study. Since the estimates have been prepared without the benefit any process development or equipment design, the validity … continued below

Description

Three conditions representing various quantities of 10-inch and/or 12-inch fuel elements were presented by the Industrial Engineering Group, IPD, as a basis for initial estimates of economic incentive to partially convert the Production Fuels Section AlSi process to longer fuel elements for FY 1964.

The comparatively larger quantities of the 4 in. longer fuel for full E-N loading showed a larger payout than for the requirements shown in this study. Since the estimates have been prepared without the benefit any process development or equipment design, the validity of the results of this study rest directly with the assumptions. These assumptions are itemized in some detail to explain the basis from which payout was calculated. At best, the study can be used as a preliminary estimate, subject to changes as more detailed analysis are made.
