Enhanced formula-based method to estimate burnup, initial enrichment, and cooling time using limited gamma-ray source data of reference PWR spent nuclear fuel assemblies

Enhanced formula-based method to estimate burnup, initial enrichment, and cooling time using limited gamma-ray source data of reference PWR spent nuclear fuel assemblies

This study proposes a framework to develop a model for estimating burnup (BU), initial enrichment (IE), and cooling time (CT) of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) overcoming the limitations of existing models in determining IE. Database (DB) of gamma-ray sources for PWR SNF was generated using ORIGAMI. Targe...
