英文摘要 | The optimal burnup, which is essential for core design, represents the discharged fuel properties of the core at equilibrium state. The optimal burnup estimation is complex in a pebble bed reactor because the fuel elements are small, numerous and continuously recirculated through the core. In this work, a facilitative method for estimating the optimal burnup of pebble bed reactor is developed. The method employs a single pebble depletion analysis and the neutron non-leakage probability of the core to estimate the attainable burnup of the pebble fuel in the core. With the developed method, the properties of homogeneous mixture fuel of thorium and uranium were analyzed, and the relation of heavy metal utilization with C/HM (graphite-to-heavy metal atom ratio) was also studied. The result shows that, for thorium utilization with homogeneous mixture of seed uranium and thorium fuel, higher enrichment of uranium is preferred. And for a typical pebble design with 20% enriched seed uranium, the heavy metal utilization is about 0.64%, which is equivalent to traditional pressurized water reactor. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd.
