11Nuclear fuel cycle — The nuclear fuel cycle, also called nuclear fuel chain, is the progression of nuclear fuel through a series of differing stages. It consists of steps in the front end, which are the preparation of the fuel, steps in the service period in which… …
12Nuclear graphite — Core graphite from the Molten Salt Reactor Experiment Nuclear graphite is any grade of graphite, usually electro graphite, specifically manufactured for use as a moderator or reflector within nuclear reactors. Graphite is an important material… …
13reactivity — /ree ak tiv i tee/, n. 1. the quality or condition of being reactive. 2. Chem. the relative capacity of an atom, molecule, or radical to undergo a chemical reaction with another atom, molecule, or compound. 3. Physics. a measure of the deviation… …
14Passive nuclear safety — describes a safety feature of a nuclear reactor that does not require operator action or electronic feedback in order to shut down safely in the event of a particular type of emergency (usually overheating resulting from a loss of coolant or loss …
15Fuel temperature coefficient of reactivity — is the change in reactivity of the nuclear fuel per degree change in the fuel temperature. The coefficient quantifies the amount of neutrons that the nuclear fuel (uranium 238) absorbs from the fission process as the fuel temperature increases.… …
16Behavior of nuclear fuel during a reactor accident — This page is devoted to a discussion of how uranium dioxide nuclear fuel behaves during both normal nuclear reactor operation and under reactor accident conditions such as overheating. Work in this area is often very expensive to conduct, and so… …
