Investigation of the safety features of advanced PWR assembly using SiC, Zr, FeCrAl and SS-310 as cladding materials
Abstract In this work, SiC (Silicon carbide), FeCrAl (ferritic), SS-310 (stainless steel 310) and Zirconium are simulated by MCNPX (Monte Carlo N‐Particle eXtended) code as cladding materials in advanced PWR (Pressurized Water Reactor) assembly. A number of reactor safety parameters are evaluated fo...
