Course: Fundamentals of Nuclear Reactor Operation Modular course two weeks Prof. PhD. Javier Dies Professor Chair in Nuclear Engineering Nuclear Engineering Research Group (NERG) School of Engineering of Barcelona (ETSEIB) Technical University of Catalonia (UPC) NERG (Nuclear Engineering Research Group) 2 FUNDAMENTALS OF NUCLEAR REACTOR OPERATION. OBJECTIVES. To provide the basic elements for the understanding of the production process and fission energy profit, which are mainly related to the nuclear reactor. To introduce the technological aspects associated to the reactor core. To give the basic foundations of calculation and evaluation. To present the basic nuclear fuel cycle elements. EXTENSION. The extension of the course is two weeks, six hours every day. From 8h30 to 14h30. CONTENTS Course presentation. Introduction to the Nuclear Energy. Nuclear reactor operation principle. Historical introduction and current situation of the fission nuclear energy profit. Neutron interaction. Reactions types. Cross sections according to the energy. Neutron scattering. Moderation power and reason. Westcott factors. Fission process in a nuclear reactor. Fission reaction. Conversion and reproduction. Fission energy. Nuclear reactor power. Fuel consumption, fission products. Neutron multiplication in a nuclear reactor. The multiplication factor. The four and six factors formula. Critical mass. Reactor kinetics. Delayed and non delayed neutrons. Reactivity equation for six delayed neutron groups. Small reactivities. Flux evolution. Control rod effect. Control-rod Worth. Differential and integral value. Soluble poisons. Reactivity effect calculation. Burnable poisons. Location. Reactivity effect calculation. Reactivity temperature effects. Feedback coefficients. Stability. Fuel temperature coefficient. Moderator temperature coefficient. NERG (Nuclear Engineering Research Group) 3 Fission products poisoning. Dead Time. Xenon space oscillations. Samarium effects. Neutron Sources. Intrinsic and external sources. Sub critical multiplication. Bending curves. METHODOLOGY Theory and exercises. The contents of the different lessons that constitute the program are exhibited in the classroom. There are insertions of exercises for the accomplishment of fixing and quantifying the presented concepts. To improve the operation of these sessions the professor usually uses the multimedia on Nuclear Reactor Physics with video-projector. This multimedia allows the main ideas about the exhibition graph enrichment. With sufficient anticipation, a copy is distributed to the students in paper or in cd. This copy makes easier to focus the attention on the explanations, without having to take excessive annotation. NUCLEAR REACTOR PHYSICS MULTIMEDIA. It has been carried out the Multimedia of Nuclear Reactor Physics at UPC. The Multimedia objective is to integrate the new technologies to enrich and to give impulse to the teaching in the subjects. This multimedia will help the students deepen in the matter with greater easiness, as well as increase their motivation. The multimedia is in English, Spanish, French and Russian. The multimedia has been distributed to 126 institutions from 53 countries.
