Application of Perturbation Theory in Fuel Management Optimization of VVER-1000 Reactor, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Vossoughi, Nasser (Supervisor)
Abstract
One of the methods to enhance the economic performance and safety factor of nuclear power plants is to determine a suitable fuel loading strategy in a reactor core. Different methods have been already elaborated to choose the proper fuel loading pattern. Selection of the best pattern for fuel loading ensures the best use of fissile material and more safety during reactor operation. Perturbation theory method is one the methods which could be used to solve this kind of problems. The effect of non-uniform perturbations on the reactor operation can be evaluated by multigroup calculations and using proper space dependent group constants. In this study, a C# based program is developed to find the...
