摘要
TRIGA 2000万隆(TRIGA 2000)是TRIGA Mark II型反应堆,标称热功率为2兆瓦。它被用作向当地市场照射放射性同位素目标的备用反应堆。本文描述了燃料类型的转换,从TRIGA燃料棒型到MTR燃料板型,作为解决燃料短缺的方法。采用WIMSD/5B(电池计算)和BATAN-FUEL和BATAN-3DIFF(核心计算)代码计算了硅化物(U3Si2-Al)的静态和动态核心参数,得到了最优的平衡核心。计算结果表明,堆芯的最佳平衡构型为5×5堆芯网格位置,堆芯中心和外围的最大热中子通量分别为6.07×1013 neutron/cm2s和1.41×1013 neutron/cm2s。结果表明,TRIGA 2000型反应堆的静态参数和固有安全性是非常令人满意的。
Core conversion design study of TRIGA Mark 2000 Bandung using MTR plate type fuel element
The TRIGA 2000 Bandung (TRIGA 2000) is a TRIGA Mark II type reactor with the nominal thermal power of 2 MW. It is used as a back-up reactor for irradiation radioisotope targets to the local market. This present study describes the fuel type conversion, from TRIGA fuel rod type to the MTR fuel plate type, as a solution to the fuel shortage. The optimum silicide (U3Si2-Al) equilibrium core are obtained by using WIMSD/5B (cell calculations) and BATAN-FUEL and BATAN-3DIFF (core calculations) codes for static and kinetic core parameters. The core calculation results showed that the optimum equilibrium core configuration is 5×5 core grid position and the maximum thermal neutron fluxes in the centre and periphery core are 6.07×1013 neutron/cm2s and 1.41×1013 neutron/cm2s, respectively. It is concluded that TRIGA 2000 reactor can be designed with very satisfactory static parameters and inherent safety.
期刊介绍:
Today, nuclear reactors generate nearly one quarter of the electricity in nations representing two thirds of humanity, and other nuclear applications are integral to many aspects of the world economy. Nuclear fission remains an important option for meeting energy requirements and maintaining a balanced worldwide energy policy; with major countries expanding nuclear energy"s role and new countries poised to introduce it, the key issue is not whether the use of nuclear technology will grow worldwide, even if public opinion concerning safety, the economics of nuclear power, and waste disposal issues adversely affect the general acceptance of nuclear power, but whether it will grow fast enough to make a decisive contribution to the global imperative of sustainable development.
