“…Reaktivitas lebih teras diperlukan dalam pengoperasian suatu reaktor untuk satu siklus operasi. Harga reaktivitas lebih tergantung pada waktu (dikarenakan oleh adanya perubahan fraksi bakar) dan temperatur (dikarenakan adanya umpan balik reaktivitas [4]. Selama satu siklus operasi, teras harus dapat memberika n reaktivitas lebih guna beroperasinya reaktor dalam keadaan kritis.…”

“…Evaluation or assessment in this paper only conducted to the last 3 cores, specifically on the T90, T91 and T92. Calculations were performed using the WIMSD-5B [3] and BATAN-FUEL computer codes [4]. Calculations with WIMSD-5B code is based on neutron transport method while BATAN-FUEL is based on 2-dimensional neutron diffusion method.…”

THE FEASIBILITY STUDY to USE UMo-Al FUEL AT RSG-GAS CORE. At present, The RSG-GAS is using U3Si2-Al dispersion fuels with uranium density of 2.96 gU/cc and the. silicide uranium fuels will not be used anymore for the future. To anticipate the usage of other fuels in the RSG-GAS core, UMo-Al fuels were chosen. The UMo-Al fuel has many advantages, such as, it can be used at higher density in the reactor core. There are high uranium densities in UMo-Al dispersion fuels up to 15 gU/cc with numerous contents of Mo. In this analysis, the UMo fuel is used with density of 3.55 gU/cc and the contents consists of UMo9wt%-Al, Mo8wt%-Al, Mo7wt%-A and Mo6wt%-Al, called U9Mo, U8Mo, U7Mo and U6Mo respectively. The neutronic parameters, such as, reactivity balances, k-eff and power peaking factors of UMo-Al fuel with higher density (3.55 g U/cc) for the existing typical working core calculation have been carried out. The UMo-Al core criticality data were calculated using 2 dimension diffusion code Batan-EQUIL. The UMo-Al fuel macroscopic crossection data as the output of cell calculation WIMSD-B5 (ENDFVII.8) had been used for the calculation. The core calculations were performed using 2 and 3 dimension diffusion codes. The good fuel for RSG-GAS can be U7Mo-Al with the density of 3.55 g U/cc. The maximum radial, axial power peaking factor of the fuel at 31 cm is 1.28 and 1.30 when all control rods down and up respectively. Those are also met with the safety criteria. Indeed, the fuel of U7Mo with 3.55 gU/cc could be applied for the RSG-GAS core and operated for 960 MWD cycle length without any part of core configuration changes.
