SOME EFFECTS OF FUEL ELEMENT GEOMETRY UPON THE NUCLEAR, THERMAL AND HYDRAULIC PERFORMANCE OF AN OMRE CORE

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4146246
A general performance comparison of fuel element configurations having cell dimensions compatible with the OMRE grid structure was conducted. Resuits show that plates and rods are almost equivalent, and both are superior to concentric rings in nuclear and thermal performance (J.R.D.)
