Embodiment Construction

[0027] The MOX fuel assembly for transmutation and flattening power of the present invention includes a doped fuel rod, a fuel rod and a guide tube. The doped fuel rod is a fuel rod doped with long-life secondary actinides; The miscellaneous fuel rods, the fuel rods and the guide tubes form an array, the guide tubes are evenly dispersed in the array, and the doped fuel rods are adjacent to the guide tube.

[0028] The long-lived secondary actinide nuclides in the doped fuel rods are transformed into short-lived or stable nuclides in the neutron field, thereby reducing the cost and difficulty of the final disposal of spent fuel, and can solve the long-lived stage of spent fuel The handling of actinides. Due to the effect of the moderator, the fast neutrons produced by the fission reaction are slowed down into thermal neutrons. Generally speaking, the moderated neutrons have a higher reaction rate with the nucleus, for example, 239 The thermal neutron fission cross section of Pu a...

Abstract

The invention relates to an MOX fuel component for evolving and flattening power and a method of flattening power. The component comprises doped fuel rods, fuel rods and guide tubes, wherein the doped fuel rods are fuel rods doped with long-life sub-actinide nuclides; the doped fuel rods, the fuel rods and the guide tubes form an array, and each doped fuel rod is adjacent to one of the guide tubes. In the MOX fuel component, the fuel rods adjacent to the guide tubes are installed as the doped fuel rods, and the long-life sub-actinide nuclides in the doped fuel rods are evolved in the neutron field, thereby reducing the costs and difficulty of final treatment of spent fuel. At the same time, the fission reaction rate of the doped fuel rods is reduced to lower the original high power around the guide tubes in the MOX fuel component, thereby achieving the effects of flattening the power of the MOX fuel component and enhancing the safety of a reactor core.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of nuclear engineering, in particular to a MOX fuel assembly with functions of transmutation of secondary actinides and flattening power. Background technique [0002] With the rapid growth of my country's economy, the demand for energy has greatly increased, especially after the signing of the Paris Agreement, the development of green energy has become a top priority. Nuclear energy has the characteristics of high efficiency, cleanliness and stability, which meets my country's energy needs. In recent years, my country’s pressurized water reactor nuclear power plants have grown rapidly, but the amount of spent fuel accumulated as a result has also increased rapidly. The spent fuel has a long lifespan and high radiotoxicity, and it has long threatened the living environment of mankind. [0003] Spent fuel disposal issues, especially the long half-life secondary actinides in spent fuel 237 Np, 241 Am, 243 A...
