Piecewise prediction of nuclide densities with control blade use as a function of burnup in BWR used nuclear fuel

In order to improve the efficiency of dry used nuclear fuel (UNF) storage, reduced reactivity methods are being developed for various reactor types and operating conditions. Sub-criticality must be maintained in the storage configuration and conservative computer simulations are used as the primary...
