Small Modular Reactor based on NuScale with Thorium base
This study proposes a novel approach to enhance the NuScale Small Modular Reactor (SMR) by incorporating mixed uranium-thorium (U-Th) oxide fuel, thereby increasing U-233 production, improving fuel use, and reducing radioactive waste. The research integrates advanced neutron transport simulations w...
