Özet
In this study, we investigated the possibility of employing accident tolerant fuel (ATF) in VVER-1200/V491 assembly without gadolinium-containing fuel rods using the Monte Carlo code Serpent 1.1. 7 with ENDF/B-VII cross-section library. The analysis involves assembly design with reflective boundary conditions. To compare the neutronic performances, U–5Mo, U-7.5 Mo, U–10Mo, and U–15Mo fuels were chosen in addition to ordinary UO 2 fuel. The concentration of 135 Xe, 149 Sm, fissile and fertile isotopes with burnup, reactivity feedback with fuel temperature variation, and β eff values were calculated. The results indicate that the fuel cycle length increases by 54.27% for U–5Mo, 32.6% for U-7.5 Mo, and 13.8% for U–10Mo, while it decreases by 16.4% for U–15Mo fuel. Additionally, the effect of 95 Mo content in natural Mo was investigated by reducing the 95 Mo concentration. According to the results, each …
