  4. 3. SPARC fast reactor design : Design of two passively safe metal-fuelled sodium-cooled pool-type small modular fast reactors with Autonomous Reactivity Control

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

    Author : Tobias Lindström; [2015]
    Keywords : Fast Reactor; Reactor Design; Passive; ARC; Autonomous Reactivity Control; SPARC; Safe and Passive with Autonomous Reactivity Control; Generation IV; Sodium; Pool-type; Metal-fuel; Reactivity Sustaining;

    Abstract : In this master thesis a small modular sodium-cooled metal-fuelled pool-type fast reactor design, called SPARC - Safe and Passive with Autonomous Reactivity control, has been designed. The long term reactivity changes in the SPARC are managed by implementation of the the Autonomous Reactivity Control (ARC) system, which is the novelty of the design. READ MORE
