The Swiss contribution to the FBR development

Abstract

The program of fast breeder reactors development in Switzerland is considered from two points of view: energy self-sufficiency and optimization of fuel cycle. Research and development program covers: safety features of LMFBRs, development of mixed carbide fuel elements, study of steam generators transient behaviour, influence of various cooling concepts on thermal efficiency, techniques for detecting cover gas bubbles in the primary sodium circuit. This paper includes cost od the research and development activities as well as description of the future aims of the FBR projects.
