Abstract:The particulars of fuel reloading in fast reactors are described. General data on a BN-1200 powergenerating unit, the principles of the construction of its reloading system, the purpose and construction of individual types of reloading equipment, and required experimental work are presented. The comparative characteristics of the BN-800 and BN-1200 reloading equipment are presented.Reloaded fuel assemblies of fast reactors, in contrast to thermal reactors, have a high specific energy release. Inside the reacto… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
