Abstract
Aiming at the application environment of small marine nuclear power platform, a 1MW Lead-Bismuth cooled nuclear reactor design scheme was proposed. The Monte Carlo method was used to calculate the reactor core physical parameters. 469 core fuel rods were arranged in 13 turns and 90% enriched UO2 fuel loading meet the power operation of nearly 10 years, and the core size meets the environmental requirements. The calculation results of fuel consumption show that after each loading, the reactor can run continuously for 1 year at 1 MW power. The radial density and axial flux density distribution and power distribution gradient trend of the core are reasonable, indicating that the design scheme can meet the requirements of small ships. Nuclear power platform use requirements.
