Historical survey of nuclear fuel utilization in the US LWR power plants. Final report
Description
The present study was performed for the US Department of Energy, under Contract DE-AC-01-79ER10020, for the purpose of describing and assessing US experience in fuel burnup and resource utilization over the past 16 years of light water reactor (LWR) power plant operation. The assessment is based on actual spent-fuel-unloading historical data for 55 plants from 1962 through the end of 1978. In assessing these data, some particular data points were eliminated in order that the results might be more representative of zirconium clad UO2 fuel assemblies typical of modern LWR technology
