Investigations of the SAD design parameters for optimum experimental performance

Deterministic and Monte Carlo modeling and analyses of YALINA-THERMAL subcritical assembly.

“…Research programs for partitioning and transmuting nuclear waste by ADS are under development in Japan, [8][9][10][11] China, 12 Europe, [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31] and Russia. [32][33][34] In Europe, the MUSE program was carried out at the MASURCA facility in Cadarache, France. [13][14][15][16][17][18][19] The MASURCA facility consists of a fast subcritical reactor, loaded with MOX fuel and sodium, coupled with a deuteron accelerator, and it operated at low power of less than 5 kW.…”

Power upgrade of the subcritical assembly in Dubna (SAD) to 100kW

“…Simulation of various types of electronuclear systems and their components due to the preparation of the project SAD with MOX fuel is presented in Refs. [5][6][7][8][9][10].…”
