Description

Two different approaches are presented to analyse ADS concepts in order to optimise them. One is based on the analysis of external proposals with CEA codes (SPARTE, ERANOS) and using the same data (JEF 2). The second one is a broad study aiming at analysing the physics of different technologies (gas cooled, metal cooled, molten salt,...). The analysis of hybrid reactors is based on the SPARTE system, i.e. the High Energy code modules developed at CEA/DAM coupled to the ERANOS deterministic set of tools and adjusted data and the TRIPOLI Monte-Carlo transport code. The data essentially rely on JEF2.2 in the adjusted library ERALIB. These methods are qualified upon the MUSE experimental program in MASURCA, the mock-up facility at CEA - Cadarache. (author)
