Simulations have shown that a fuel rod designed by the company significantly outperforms traditional MOX fuel in consuming plutonium, and would be well-suited for consuming excess weapons-grade ...

The Bochvar Institute has developed a fuel rod design based on nitride uranium-plutonium fuel for the BREST-OD-300 fast neutron reactor. At the same time, Rosatom’s nuclear fuel division is developing ...

The study of nuclear fuel and associated materials such as fuel rods, water rods, grids, and channel boxes is performed using PIE techniques with the aim of designing an efficient fuel that can endure ...

Flow-induced vibration (FIV) poses a substantial challenge in nuclear reactor design, particularly in the context of fuel rod assemblies. These vibrations arise from the complex fluid–structure ...
