The Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL) is developing a reactor design in a double donut configuration for the advanced neutron source (ANS). The ANS, with a neutron flux ten times that of existing sources, is needed for materials science, isotope production, and fundamental physics research. The purpose of this study is to examine the reactor parameters for the INEL Ultrahigh Flux Reactor (UHFR) and recommend ways to optimize the reactor design.
