Fuel Management in Large Pressurized Water Reactors

Description: Economic and operational ground rules and their effects on fuel management are summarized, and examples showing the approach to typical fuel management problems are presented. The problems associated with in-core fuel management are also discussed, and the merits of various fuel cycling methods are evaluated. (D.C.W.)

Automatic Exit Steam Quality Control for Boiling Water Reactors

Description: From American Nuclear Society Meeting, New York, Nov. 1963. The need for control of the flow distribution and/or steam quality in boiling reactors is discussed. A quality control device is being developed which consists of an entrance venturi and an exit venturi for measuring the flow rates into and out of the channel, means for comparing the two flow rate signals, and a value for regulating the flow rate. This device can be used either as a constantquality device or as a controlled-quality dev… more

Nuclear Performance of Large Pressurized Water Reactors Controlled by Soluble Poison

Description: The performance of large pressurized-water reactors operated with a uniformly distributed control technique such as a soluble neutron poison (boric acid) dissolved in the moderator is investigated. The cycling studies are performed in one dimension. (C.E.S.)

Simplified Analytical Model for Simulation of Boiling Water Reactors

Description: A digital computer program FLARE was developed for calculating the core reactivity and power distributions in the Big Rock Point Reactor. The calculations are restricted to a relatively coarse mesh, but good agreement was obtained in comparisons with operating data from the Kahl reactor. (D.L.C.)
