Currently, Indonesia through BATAN is operating three research reactors, namely the RSG-GAS reactor with the power of 30 MWt at Puspiptek south Tangerang (the first criticality in 1987), the TRIGA 2000 reactor with the power of 2 MW in Bandung which the first criticality in 1965 with the power of 250 kW, was increased to 1 MW in 1971, and further upgraded to 2 MW in 2000. Beside that, there is Kartini reactor with a power of 100 kW located in Yogyakarta (first criticality in 1979). These reactors are quite old, and in accordance with Bapeten regulations, have carried out the first periodic safety review, to obtain a reactor license for the next 10 years of operation. In line with this, one of BATAN's current national research programs is to increase the production of radioisotopes and radiopharmaceuticals, where reactors play a very important role in the production of certain isotopes. In tracing the data obtained from operational reports related to irradiation requests from reactor users, namely PTRR, PSTNT, and PT INUKI for radioisotope production, which has been carried out in the last 5 years, May 2015 until 25 August 2020, show that the irradiation request at RSG-GAS is still not optimal. In term of the utilization of RSG-GAS, it can still be optimized, which in this case needs to be balanced with post-irradiation processing capabilities. Meanwhile, from the results of tracing and data collection, it can be shown that at this time the reactors are still operating. The utilization activities of the reactors complement each other according to their age and facilities.

ABSTRAKOPTIMASI DESAIN TERMOHIDROLIKA TERAS DAN SISTEM PENDINGIN REAKTOR RISET INOVATIF DAYA TINGGI. Implementasi reaktor inovasi telah diterapkan pada berbagai reaktor riset baru yang saat ini sedang dibangun. Pada saat ini BATAN sedang merancang desain konseptual reaktor riset daya tinggi yang telah masuk pada tahap optimasi desain. Spesifikasi desain konseptual reaktor riset inovatif adalah reaktor tipe kolam berpendingin air dan reflektor D 2 O. Teras reaktor memiliki kisi 5x5 dengan 16 bahan bakar dan 4 batang kendali. Teras reaktor berada di dalam tabung berisi D 2 O yang berfungsi sebagai posisi iradiasi. Daya reaktor 50 MW didesain untuk membangkitkan fluks neutron termal sebesar 5x10 14 n/cm 2 s. Teras reaktor berbentuk kompak dan menggunakan bahan bakar U 9 Mo-Al dengan tingkat muat uranium 7-9 gU/cm 3 . Desain termohidrolika yang mencakup pemodelan, perhitungan dan analisis kecukupan pendingin dibuat sinergi dengan desain fisika teras agar keselamatan reaktor terjamin. Makalah ini bertujuan menyampaikan hasil analisis perhitungan termohidrolika teras dan sistem reaktor riset inovatif pada kondisi tunak. Analisis dilakukan menggunakan program perhitungan yang telah tervalidasi, masing-masing adalah Caudvap, PARET-ANL, Fluent dan ChemCad 6.4.1. Hasil perhitungan menunjukkan bahwa pembangkitan panas yang tinggi dapat dipindahkan tanpa menyebabkan pendidihan dengan menerapkan desain teras reaktor bertekanan, di samping itu desain awal komponen utama sistem pembuangan panas yang terintegrasi telah dilakukan, sehingga konseptual desain termohidrolika RRI-50 dapat diselesaikan.Kata kunci : reaktor riset inovatif, Caudvap, PARET-ANL, Fluent, ChemCad 6.4.1. ABSTRACT THERMALHYDRAULIC DESIGN AND COOLING SYSTEM OPTIMIZATION OF THE HIGH POWER INOVATIVE RESEARCH REACTOR. Reactor innovation has been implemented in a variety of new research reactors that currently are being built. At this time BATAN is designing a conceptual design of the high power research reactor which has entered the stage of design optimization. The conceptual design specifications of the innovative research reactor is a pool type reactor, water-cooled and reflected by D 2 O. The reactor core has a 5 x 5 grid with 16 fuels and 4 control rods, which is inserted into a tube containing
