    Abstract: A reactor vessel includes a plenum and a reactor core with first and second sets of channels. A blanket salt flows through the first set of channels, and a fuel salt flows through the second set of channels. The plenum receives the blanket salt from the first set of channels. The blanket salt provides a breed-stock for a fission reaction in the fuel salt and transfers heat generated by the fission reaction without mixing with the fuel salt.

    Abstract: Fuel bundles of a boiling-water nuclear reactor are inverted during refueling methods. Bundles burned in a first orientation are subjected to greater burnup near their bottoms and greater conversion of fertile fuel to fissile fuel near their tops. Inverting the bundles promotes burnup of the actinide products from the conversion of the last cycle. Thus, the procedure greater energy production efficiency and reduced actinide radioactive waste are achieved. Once inverted fuel bundles can be removed for disposal. Alternatively, they can be reinverted to burnup actinide fissile fuel generated at the bottom (while it was downstream of the top) during the second operating cycle. Further inversions are provided for, but the major gains occur during the first and second inversions.

    Abstract: A method and system (10) for controlling nuclear reactivity in a nuclear reactor are disclosed. The method includes maintaining a nuclear poison solution at an initial poison pressure (P1) less than the steam pressure within the reactor vessel. The method further includes channeling a pressurizing fluid into the holding tank (12) for pressurizing the poison solution to a pressure greater than the initial pressure thereof, and draining by gravity the poison solution from the holding tank and into the reactor vessel for mixing with the water to reduce reactivity in the core. The system includes the holding tank (12) apparatus for channeling the pressurizing fluid (18) from the reactor vessel (100) to the holding tank, apparatus for channeling the poison solution (28) from the holding tank by gravity into the reactor vessel, and a controller (42) for opening a normally closed pressurizing valve (26) and a normally closed drain valve (40) to allow flow of pressurizing fluid to, and the drained poison solution from, the holding tank through the respective channeling apparatus.

    Abstract: A drive (10) for positioning a control rod (12) in a nuclear reactor is disclosed. The drive (10) includes a housing (112) having a piston disposed therein, with a piston rod extending from the piston and through the housing for being joinable to the control rod. A driving fluid is provided into the housing for exerting a pressure force against the piston for moving the piston and the control rod. The output requirements for the driving fluid are varied in response to the position of the piston for selectively controlling intermediate positons of the piston.
