Description

A fast reactor concept, PEACER was introduced as a burner of transuranic isotopes and long-lived fission products. The PEACER core was loaded with U-10%Zr-31%TRU metallic fuel and cooled with Pb-Bi coolant. Nuclear analysis was done by a series of code systems, TRANSX - DNTSYS - REBUS3 and MONTEBURNS. The data library for the TRANSX is an 80-group KAFAX-F22 developed by the KAERI for the analysis of the Na-cooled break-even fast reactor, KALIMER. The purpose of this paper is to check the reliability of the modified KAFAX libraries for a transmutation reactor design
