| Summary: | High Temperature Test Reactor (HTTR) is one type of IV generation reactor with high temperature
gas-cooled designed with low-enriched uranium. The purpose of this study is to compare various
coolants in the reactor to obtain optimal coolant. Coolant is a material used to cool the reactor. In
this study compared three types of material, namely Helium, Pb-Bi and CO2. In this study also
calculated with three types of reactor fuel, namely UO2, (Th,U-233)O2, and (U,Pu)O2. The
parametric survey conducted is to do enrichment variations between 1 - 10%. The parametric
survey results that meet the operating targets for UO2 and (Th, U-233)O2 fuels are 5% for Helium
coolers, 6% for Pb-Bi coolers and 4% for CO2 coolers. Whereas fuel (U,Pu)O2 only reached the
operating target for 9% enrichment on CO2 coolers. It was found that CO2 coolers were the best
coolers among the three coolers compared. The reactor cell calculations are performed using the
SRAC 2006 program, and utilize JENDL4.0 nuclide data. |
