摘要: 分析加速器驱动系统(ADS)钠冷金属燃料快堆重金属燃料不同核素对堆芯有效增殖系数(keff)的影响,给出了燃料成分的确定方法,详细分析次锕系核素(MA)嬗变特性。运用耦合了MCNP4c3与ORIGEN2的三维燃耗程序COUPLE对堆芯进行稳态与燃耗计算。结果分析表明,调节燃料中239Pu的质量比例并使其在燃耗过程中保持稳定是使keff达到设计值并在燃耗过程中保持稳定的有效手段。散裂中子引起堆芯内区较外区更硬的中子能谱,有利于提高MA的裂变截面与裂变吸收比。全堆MA嬗变支持比为8.3,具有较好的嬗变效果。由于堆芯内区的高通量,堆芯内外区的嬗变率有明显差异,将MA集中布置于内区有利于减少装料量,改善总体嬗变效果。Abstract: Through the analysis of the effect of heavy metal actinides on the effective multiplication constant(keff) of the core in accelerator-driven system(ADS) sodium-cooled fast reactor loaded with metallic fuel,we gave the method for determining fuel components.The characteristics of minor actinides(MAs) transmutation was analyzed in detail.3D burn-up code COUPLE,which couples MCNP4c3 and ORIGEN2,was applied to the neutron simulation and burn up calculation.The results of optimized scheme shows that adjusting the proportion of 239Pu and maintaining the value during the burn-up cycle is an efficient method of designing keff and keeping stable during the burn-up cycle.Spallation neutrons lead to the neutron spectrum harder at inner core than that at outer core.It is in favor of improving MA’s fission cross sections and the cap-ture-to-fission ratio.The total MAs transmutation support ratio 8.3 achieves excellent transmutation effect.For higher flux at inner core leads to obvious differences on transmutation efficiency,only disposing MAs at inner core is in favor of decreasing the loading mass and improving MAs transmutation effect.
