Calculations of the principal neutronic characteristics of a hypothetical VVER assembly with minor actinides incorporated into PuO2-ThO2 fuel in a duplex configuration
The VVER-1200/AES-2006 is recognized as a leading Gen III+ nuclear reactor design, meeting stringent international safety standards. This study evaluates the use of a novel PuO2-ThO2 duplex fuel, incorporating weapon-grade plutonium (WgPu) and thorium, for a hypothetical VVER-1200 assembly. The rese...
