- Title
Physics Features of TRU-Fueled VHTRs.
- Authors
Lewis III, Tom G.; Tsvetkov, Pavel V.
- Abstract
The article explores the physics features of transuranic (TRU)-fueled very-high-temperature reactors (VHTRs) on a single fuel loading. It highlights the investigations of alternative waste management strategies for spent nuclear fuel (SNF) in the U.S. It describes the encouraging performance characteristics of VHTRs and high-temperature gas-cooled reactors (HTGRs) and their Generation IV (GEN IV) extensions in operation on a single fuel loading.
