Assessment of the influence of design limits to the economics of WWER fuel cycle

  • 1. Russian Research Centre 'Kurchatov Institute', Moscow (Russian Federation)

Description

The paper discusses the influence of the reactor parameters limits for normal operation on the economical performance of WWER fuel cycles. It is shown for the typical WWER fuel cycles that decreasing the limits for the main power distribution parameters to 10% leads to decreasing the fuel components of the electricity cost price up to 4-5%. As the nowadays limitations are reached the dependence becomes weaker. (Authors)
