Uranium Multiple Recycle Fuel Cycle for Fusion-fission Hybrid

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: A uranium multiple recycle fuel cycle is analyzed using a simple numerical model. Three types of uranium are used as additives before each fuel cycle: depleted and natural uraniums and the spent nuclear fuel without any reprocessing. While two first showed almost identical results, the spent nuclear fuel cycle is characterized by slightly increased radioactivity and enhanced heat release of the recycled fuel.
