Projection Analysis for ATR Irradiation of the AFC-FAST Experiment
Analyses of the Advanced Fuels Campaign Fission Accelerated Steady-state Test (AFC-FAST) in the Advanced Test Reactor are presented. A detailed methodology was employed to better account for uncertainties in the planned power and duration of sequential reactor loading cycles. By performing coupled depletion analyses at multiple power levels and durations, the differences in experiment heating outputs can be found. The effects of these uncertainties upon multiple experiment configurations were assessed in an effort to streamline the process of planning for and documenting future irradiations. In conclusion, the data generated from this work have been used to help inform assumptions on subsequent projections to perform only a nominal case depletion.
