New Approaches and Research Opportunities in a Field of Nuclear Fuel and Nuclear Power Engineering

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Currently nano materials come to the forefront of interest. Nano material based admixtures can considerably improve the properties of the construction materials in many ways. The carbon nano materials belong to perspective materials that can be processed in several different forms such as nano fibers, nano wires, and single- or multi-wall nano tubes. It is necessary to know detailed properties and behavior before the first use of materials with nano particle admixtures in the nuclear power plant within the primary circuit. The deployment of new materials (close to the nuclear reactor) must be preceded by verification of the properties and behavior of the material under the neutron beam. Nano materials can improve mechanical properties of standard materials or if utilized alone, nanoparticles like nano fibers, wires, and tubes open up the possibility of creating advanced collimators and neutron guides. Currently, most of the research is made using computer simulations. However, it is necessary to backed up simulations by real measured data before real deployment of new materials. There were carried out several different measurements on nano materials at research reactor VR-1 of the Czech Technical University in Prague under the umbrella of Open Access project. The aim of the measurements was to determine how different nano particles affect a narrow beam of neutrons. It is necessary to know and observe not only the behavior of used materials and components to ensure the safe operation of nuclear power plants. The nuclear fuel itself subject to thorough supervision too. Checking and inspection of nuclear fuel and spent nuclear fuel are currently very time-consuming. Check of the spent fuel belongs to one of things the inspections put great emphasis. Cerenkov radiation can be used to check the spent nuclear fuel. There are some different analyzers of Cerenkov radiation at the moment. Cerenkov radiation contains photons in the range from UV to visible light. Therefore, t
