Fission product release calculation of <strong>HTTR</strong><br />

• Improvements in fission product release code:<br />

• Fickean diffusion within (hollow) cylindrical bodies<br />

• Usage of Monte-Carlo method <strong>to</strong> r<strong>and</strong>omize particle failure<br />

• Usage of burnup calculation <strong>to</strong> determine nuclide inven<strong>to</strong>ries instead of<br />

using simplified analytical equation<br />

→ Spatial resolved fission product release rates<br />

(so far, only block‐wise)<br />

• Burnup calculation with SERPENT<br />

• Monte-Carlo neutronics code incl. burnup calculation<br />

• Developed at VTT Technical Research Centre<br />

• Applied <strong>to</strong> <strong>HTTR</strong>, <strong>HTR</strong>-10, Konvoi (1300 MW class)<br />

etc. at FZJ<br />
