Safety margin and fuel cycle period enhancements of VVER-1000 nuclear reactor using water/silver nanofluid

Volume: 50, Issue: 5, Pages: 639 - 647

Abstract
In this study, the effects of selecting water/silver nanofluid as both a coolant and a reactivity controller during the first operating cycle of a light water nuclear reactor are investigated. To achieve this, coupled neutronic–thermo-hydraulic analysis is employed to simulate the reactor core. A detailed VVER1000/446 reactor core is modeled in monte carlo code (MCNP), and the model is verified using the porous media approach. Results show that...
