Abstract

In this paper, we present the results of studies of the physics of a high-temperature gas-cooled thorium reactor facility of low power operating in the long-term operation mode. Carried out a comparative neutron-physical calculation of promising fuel compounds ((Th,Pu)O2, (Th,Pu)N, (Th,Pu)C), which can be included (dispersed) into the matrix of the fuel compact of the reactor under investigation. It has been established that the use of (Th, Pu) C-fuel will increase the burn-up of heavy metal by 5%, reduce the accumulation of fission products and CO, increase the service life of fuel.
