Economic Module Development for the Fuel Cycle Simulation Tool CLASS

An economical module to calculate the financial aspect of nuclear industry was developed based on CLASS, a library used for performing dynamic fuel cycle simulations. The tool will be introduced and a simple case of a PWR reactor will be presented to validate the module looking forward to evaluate a symbiotic scenario in the full paper involving UOX reactors, MOX reactors for recycling the plutonium and PHWR reactors for recycling the uranium.
