ABSTRACTThis paper studies the performance of (U, Pu)C fuel in a hexagonal assembly of a GFR (Gas Fast Reactor). The SCALE 6.0 (Standardized Computer Analysis for Licensing Evaluation version 6.0) code was used in the calculation. The goal is to evaluate the behavior of the infinite multiplication factor (kinf) for a heterogeneous assembly model using four nuclear data libraries: V6-238, V7-238, ENDF/B-VI.8 and ENDF/B-VII.0. The burnup of (U, Pu)C was performed by the TRITON-6 module, and the isotopic concentrations were evaluated during the cycle. The present work comprises calculations at Zero Power and Full Power condition. This study intends to achieve more information about different Fast Reactors.

This paper presents the results of the analysis of the Unprotected Loss of Flow (ULOF) experiment SHRT-45R performed in the EBR-II fast reactor. These experiments are being analyzed in the scope of a benchmark exercise coordinated by the IAEA. The SHRT-45R benchmark contains a neutronic and a thermal-hydraulic part and results are presented for both. Neutronic calculations are performed with the ERANOS2.0 code in combination with various sets of nuclear data. The thermal-hydraulic evaluation is done with RELAP5-3D. The results are that the major neutronic parameters are well predicted with error margins on the order of 1%. The thermal-hydraulic results are less favourable: a consistent overestimation of the outlet temperature occurs in combination with erroneous flow distribution. Observed differences with measured data cannot be explained easily. The work presented in this paper was undertaken to investigate and validate the effectiveness of the calculational tools and data that are commonly used in our lab for the design and analysis of liquid metal cooled fast reactors.
