On Some Fundamental Peculiarities of the Traveling Wave Reactor

Figure 1

Kinetics of the neutrons , , and concentrations in the core of a cylindrical reactor with radius of 125 cm and 1000 cm long at the time of 240 days. Here is the transverse spatial coordinate axis (cylinder radius); is the longitudinal spatial coordinate axis (cylinder length). Temporal step of the numerical calculations is 0.1 s adopted from [5].
