Optimized core design and fuel management of a pebble-bed type nuclear reactor

The core design of a pebble-bed type Very High Temperature Reactor (VHTR) is optimized, aiming for an increase of the coolant outlet temperature to 1000 C, while retaining its inherent safety features. The VHTR has been selected by the international Generation IV research initiative as one of the six most promising nuclear reactor concepts that...
