Abstract:This paper presents a comparative and quantitative analysis of transition scenarios to potential fuel cycle options, focusing on once-through (OT) and pyro-sodium-cooled fast reactor (pyro-SFR) cycles. By employing a module-based flow diagram in system definition, we developed a dynamic mass-flow model to simulate transition scenarios in line with current Korean nuclear plans. Additionally, we derived an economic evaluation model to determine the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) for each fuel cycle option.… Show more
