Analysis and optimization of energy release and fuel burnup nonuniformity in the WWER-1000 fuel assembly

The paper considers and systematises the options of fuel assemblies (FAs) for the WWER-1000 reactor. In the Serpent neutron-physics code, an infinite-height fuel assembly with six fuel pins is modelled using the U49G6 pattern used in the WWER-1000 «large series» fuel assemblies. Variants of fuel ele...
