Nuclear structures with high performance materials will be critical for the success of future fusion energy. Zirconium alloys are extensively used for nuclear reactor core materials as fuel cladding and guide tubes due to excellent radiation and corrosion resistant properties. In this paper, the excitation functions of {sup 90}Zr(n,2n){sup 89}Zr, {sup 90}Zr(n,α){sup 87}Sr, {sup 91}Zr(n,p){sup 91}Y and {sup 92}Zr(n,p){sup 92}Y nuclear reactions were calculated for energies up to 25 MeV. Besides, ALICE/ASH and TALYS 1.6 codes were used for the cross section calculations. The obtained calculations were compared with the experimental data in the literature.
