摘要: Abstract The U-233 Conversion Ratio (CR) calculation results for Yalina Thermal assembly are presented as a function of burnup, power density, irradiation history and concentration. is an ADS which makes configuration changes possible. These various configurations enable investigation comparison CR in Thorium cycle (Th cycle) mixed Uranium–Thorium (U–Th burning. density has no influence on the concentration dependence burnup CR. calculations were done with MCNPX code.
