A computer code (UWB1) that is applicable for both light and heavy water reactor fuel types is being developed at the University of West Bohemia. CANDU fuel geometry was investigated in this paper. Fuel depletion with UWB1 code was performed and compared to other depletion codes.A feasibility study on the use of burnable absorbers in CANDU to improve operating margins was recently published [1]. The...
In any reactor physics analysis, the instantaneous power distribution in the reactor core of any power reactor, including CANDU-type reactor, can be calculated when the actual bundle-wise burnup distribution is known. Considering the fact that CANDU utilizes the on-power refuelling to compensate for the reduction in reactivity due to fuel burnup, in the CANDU fuel management analysis, snapshots of...
