This research study of the optimation of thermal power and core size in a GFR type reactor with natural metallic uranium fuel (U-10%wt Zr), supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO2) as a coolant, and cladding made of stainless steel 316 with a thermal power of 500 MWt. This research uses a modified CANDLE burnup strategy where the reactor core is divided into 10 regions radial with the same volume. …
The development of large power plants in Indonesia is constrained due to the development of large enough development, but nuScale small power plant is one of the alternatives that can be implemented in Indonesia because of small capital costs, unit construction is easily adjusted to the needs and already uses a passive error system and natural circulation. In addition, the accident factor is ve…
