Abstract
An optimization design of China supercritical water-cooled reactor (SCWR) with the rated electric power of 1000 MWe (CSR1000) conceptual core is proposed. Steady-state performance of the proposed core is then studied with the SCWR core steady-state analysis code system SNTA. These key parameters such as burnup performance, reactivity control capability, power distribution, maximum fuel cladding temperature, and maximum linear power density are analyzed. The relative coolant flow rate of the second flow path, which is suited with assembly power, is also presented. The study shows that the refueling cycle of CSR1000 core can be extended effectively under the optimization design.
