description | ABSTRACT
Nuclear Reactor Technology is going continually improved. For the future, there is a term of Advanced Nuclear Reactor Technology or Generation 4 Reactors. The goals of Advanced Nuclear Reactor Development are to minimize the need of nuclear fuel resource, to minimize the production of radioactive waste, to increase the achievement of 3S (safety, security and safeguard) concept, to increase the economic aspect and to get flexibility in energy spectrum and utilization. There are several designs of Generation 4 Reactors. MSR is one of the Gen 4 Reactor designs that will be studied in this course in term of security. The MSR is choused due to its unique fuel system, i.e. use liquid fuel rather than ordinary solid fuel.
The MSR usually designed to have breeding capability to utilize the far more plentiful fertile fuel resources (U-238 and Th-232) and capability to transmute trans-uranium nuclides or minor actinides. The breeding and transmuting capability means the advanced reactor operation need advanced nuclear fuel cycle and fuel management. Due to the use of liquid fuel, MSR is designed to utilize chemically on line fuel processing system.
In security point of view, the on line fuel processing system and the capability of MSR to breed fissile fuel pose typical threat that will be different to the threat resemble to the solid fueled reactors. The Nuclear Reactor Design Course is and elective course in Nuclear Study Program in Department of Nuclear Engineering and Engineering Physics, Faculty of Engineering, Universitas Gadjah Mada. This Course give broad but general knowledge to student related to several nuclear reactor designs, roles in nuclear reactor design, design improvements.
The table top exercise will be attached to this course using MSR as a special case. This will give the student challenges to identify possible threats related to fuel cycles and fuel management (including waste treatment), especially due to the use of liquid fuel. This course then gives possible concepts or approaches for solving these threats.
