Arrangement of the BN-600 Reactor Core Refueling at Transition to the Increased Fuel Burnup
- 1. JSC "Afrikantov OKBM" (Russian Federation)
Description
It is planned to switch the reactor core to an extended fuel life-time equal to 752 equivalent full power days (efpd) with five-batch refueling scheme of the major part of FSAs while using cold-worked radiation resistant steel EK164-ID on fuel claddings in order to increase fuel burnup in BN-600 reactor. To provide the transition from the existing four-batch refueling pattern to a five-batch refueling pattern, it is necessary to establish a special FSA refueling procedure during the transition period. This period is mainly characterized by forming five FSA refueling groups, which differ by their in-core residence time. (author)
