Abstract Scope |
X-energy’s ARDP concept is a pebbled bed reactor based on HTGR technology. The Xe-100 has a continuously fueled, multi-pass fuel cycle based on the UCO TRISO-coated fuel particles developed as part of the DOE’s NGNP program. This presentation highlights some of the safety characteristics due to the choice of materials in the reactor design. Aspects of the multi-physics simulation of the reactor, its materials and associated fuel cycle will be addressed. |
