Steady State Modeling of the Minimum Critical Core of the Transient Reactor Test Facility

Creator:

Alberti, Anthony L.

Abstract:

With the advent of next generation reactor systems and new fuel designs, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has identified the need for the resumption of transient testing of nuclear fuels. The DOE has decided that the Transient Reactor Test Facility (TREAT) at Idaho National Laboratory (INL) is best suited...
