Extension of fuel burnup in light water reactors by using a strict in-out refueling scheme

Creator:

Yen, Julian Yu-liang

Abstract:

To utilize energy resources as efficiently as possible has become a necessity today. The purpose of this study is to see how this can be done by extending burnup in a light water reactor. Specifically, an in-out refueling scheme might extract the maximum energy from nuclear fuel during its redidence...
