1. Qualification of a Physical Model of Cladding Creep During Dry Storage of Spent Nuclear Fuel
University essay from KTH/FysikAbstract : In dry interim storage of spent nuclear fuel, thermal creep is one of the major threats to the fuel cladding integrity due to the constant decay heat generation from the fission products and minor actinides in the fuel, and the increase in fuel rod internal pressure which is present after burnup. Plenty of research has been done on either empty cladding tubes irradiated in a research reactor, or on spent fuel that is defueled prior to the examination. READ MORE

2. A Monte Carlo simulation study of collimators for a high-spatial-resolution Gamma Emission Tomography instrument
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysikAbstract : The present master thesis concerns a study of collimator designs for a high-spatial-resolution Gamma Emission Tomography (GET) instrument for used fuels utilizing Monte Carlo simulation codes. Designing a collimator for this purpose is a multilateral process that requires many interconnected and conflicting objectives to be taken into consideration. READ MORE

3. Sensitivity study of control rod depletion coefficients
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysikAbstract : This report investigates the sensitivity of the control rod depletion coefficients, Sg, to different input parameters and how this affects the accumulated 10B depletion, β. Currently the coefficients are generated with PHOENIX4, but the geometries can be more accurately simulated in McScram. READ MORE
