Description

This paper describes methods used to evaluate the impact of axial and horizontal burnup shapes on the loading criterion of a spent fuel management system of interest. Different modeling assumptions all being made to ensure that the burnup credit criticality analysis of the spent fuel management system is based on a fuel irradiation history which leads to a bounding loading criterion are compared to each other.
