Description

Linear correlations between burnup, Pu/U- and U5/U0-ratios on the one hand and 154Eu/137Cs or 134Cs/137Cs ratios on the other have been proved to exist in the case of spent WWER fuel. The possibility of using such correlation to determine the 235U and Pu content of fuel assemblies has been demonstrated. The results agree well with theoretical calculations using the COFIP and COHN codes. (author)
