      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2018)
      Procedure of criticality calculations and uncertainty evaluations currently has several insufficiencies which could lead to potential non–conservativeness. Paper discuss and describes possibilities of elimination of these ...
    • STUDY OF THERMAL CREEP OF COATED CLADDING MATERIALS 

      Autor: Ševeček, Martin; Shirvan, Koroush; Ballinger, Ronald G.
      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2018)
      Coated cladding materials are considered as a near-term concept for so-called Accident Tolerant Fuel materials. Their behavior in accidental conditions is mainly studied around the world, however, they need to survive ...

      Autor: Vlček, Daniel
      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2018)
      This project deals with the thermal analyses of the wet and dry storages of the spent nuclear fuel. The dry spent fuel storage sub-channel code COBRA-SFS has been used in order to calculate the temperature field. In this ...
    • ADVANCED HOMOGENIZATION METHODS FOR PRESSURIZED WATER REACTORS 

      Autor: Suk, Pavel
      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2018)
      Macroscopic cross section generation is key part of core calculation. Commonly, the data are prepared independently without a knowledge of fuel loading pattern. The fuel assemblies are simulated in infinite lattice (with ...
