18th Symposium of AER on VVER Reactor Physics and Reactor Safety (2008, Eger, Hungary)
Fuel cycles , uncertainty calculations
Abstract
Paks Unit 1 finished it?s 25th cycle in 2008. In the article different reload strategies and applied fuel on this unit are listed. Cycles recalculated using present reload design tools and safety limits checked using present safety limits. Correlation between advanced fuel utilization and margins to safety limits are analyzed.
