ESFR-SMART Core Safety Measures and Their Preliminary Assessment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A large 3600 MW-thermal European sodium fast reactor (ESFR) concept has been studied in a European Horizon-2020 project since September 2017, following an earlier European project. In the paper, we describe new ESFR core ...
Superphénix Benchmark Part I: Results of Static Neutronics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the paper, the specification of a new neutronics benchmark for large sodium cooled fast reactor (SFR) core and results of modeling by different participants are presented. The neutronics benchmark describes the core of ...
Impact of Thermal-Hydraulic Feedback and Differential Thermal Expansion on European Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactor Core Power Distribution
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The objective of this paper is to quantify the coupling effect on the power distribution of sodium-cooled fast reactors (SFRs), specifically the European SFR. Calculations are performed with several state-of-the-art reactor ...
