SUPEL Scenario for PWR Spent Fuel Direct Recycling Scheme

Abstract:

Study on SUPEL (Straight Utilization of sPEnt LWR fuel in LWR system) scenario for PWR spent fuel direct recycling scheme has been performed. Several spent PWR fuel compositions in loaded fuel has been investigated to achive the criticality of reactor. The reactor can obtain it criticality for 4.5 a% of UO₂ enrichment with at maximum 8.0 a% of spent fuel fraction in loaded fuel. The neutron spectra become harder with the raising of UO₂enrichment in the loaded fresh fuel as well as the increasing of the fraction of spent fuel in the core.
