Calculation of the decay power in nuclear fuels of light water reactors - Part 2: Mixed-uranium-plutonium oxide (MOX) nuclear fuel for pressurized water reactors
Berechnung der Zerfallsleistung der Kernbrennstoffe von Leichtwasserreaktoren - Teil 2: Uran-Plutonium-Mischoxid (MOX)-Kernbrennstoff für Druckwasserreaktoren
Overview
This document shall be applied for the calculation of the decay power of mixed uranium-plutonium oxide (MOX) nuclear fuel for pressurized water reactors. The user is provided with calculation rules and data sets which are used to calculate the decay power for each combination from the plutonium content in the fuel element, plutonium quality and moderation ratio. The committee responsible for this document is NA 062-07-44 AA "Zerfallsleistung" ("Decay power") at DIN.
