Study the Effect of Gd2O3 on the Neutronic Characteristics of Boiling Water Reactor using MCNPX CodeBy Abdelghafar Galahom, II Bashter, Moustafa Aziz
Abstract: MCNPX code (Monte Carlo N–Particle code extended) is used to design Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) bundle model. This model is designed to study the effect of Gd2O3 on the reactivity effect of voiding, void coefficient, neutron flux and normalized power. The incorporation of Gd2O3 directly into the UO2 fuel is the most attractive process, because of its significant effect on the fuel life in the core of the reactor. The …
