Shaped Burnable Poison Development Program Under the Euratom Program. Quarterly Progress Report, July 1, 1963-September 30, 1963

Description: The number and size of Gd/sub 2/O/sub 3/ poison cylinders were computed for a large boiling water reactor with H/sub 2/O-toUO/sub 2/ ratio of 2.6, a U/ sup 235/ enrichment of 3.3 wt%, and Zr clad. The excess reactivity of the poisoned core was computed for the cold-clean, hot-clean non-voided, and hot full- power condition as a function of Mwd/t. For comparison, these calculations were repeated for B/sub 4/C as the burnable poison element for the same reactor. The use of Gd rather than B/sup 10… 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.)
