Title: HTGR optimization of safety using probabilistic risk assessment

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6627168

This paper is a synopsis of a high temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) safety optimization study using probabilistic risk assessment (PRA). The study objective is to identify design modifications that, based on PRA, improve the plant's safety within a small cost increment.
