Development of a statistical fuel rod design methodology

  • 1. Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute, Taejon (Korea, Republic of)

Description

A statistical fuel rod design methodology, which uses the response surface method and Monte Carlo calculation, has been developed to reduce conservatism included in the rod internal gas pressure calculation by replacing the worst case data by data with statistically known conservatism. 95% value of rod internal gas pressure estimated by the statistical fuel rod design methodology is much smaller than rod internal gas pressure obtained by the worst case data
