Thermal Analysis of LWR-2 Experiment in the Advanced Test Reactor

Description

A thermal analysis was performed at the Idaho National Laboratory on the Light Water Reactor (LWR-2) experiment fuel to determine fuel temperatures and safety margins in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR). The overall experiment description and various types of fuel proposed for this experiment is presented Reference [1]. The purpose of this paper is to present the thermal analysis for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Advanced Fuel Cycle Initiative's LWR-2 irradiation experiment in the ATR.
