SERPENT Modeling of the Transient Reactor Test Facility and Comparison with Measured Experimental Data
… for research into accident tolerant light water reactor fuels. In addition to the need for accident tolerant fuels testing there is a rising demand for clean renewable energy and the design of many generation IV reactors to fill the role which will require testing of such reactors and their …

Conceptual design of an annular-fueled superheat boiling water reactor
… of an annular-fueled superheat boiling water reactor (ASBWR) is outlined. The proposed design, ASBWR, combines the boiler and superheater regions into one fuel assembly. This ensures good neutron moderation throughout the reactor core. A single fuel design is used in the core. Each annular …

Development of fission gas swelling and release models for metallic nuclear fuels
Fuel swelling and fission gas generation for fast reactor fuels are of high importance since they are among the main limiting factors in the development of metallic fast reactor fuel. Five new fission gas and swelling modules for the fast reactor metallic fuel code FEAST-METAL were developed. This …

Reconsideration of Inherent Neutron Sources in Liquid Fuel of Molten Salt Reactors
… neutron source was calculated for Molten Salt Reactor Experiment (MSRE) in 1959 using then-determined alpha-n cross-sections and an estimate for gamma-n cross-section for beryllium-9. Values selected to generate conservative neutron population value for determining required external neutron …
