Criticality Analysis for BWR Spent Fuel Based on the Burnup Credit Evaluation from Full Core Simulations

This study performed criticality analysis for the GBC-68 storage cask loaded with boiling water reactor (BWR) spent fuel at the discharged burnups obtained from the full-core simulations. The analysis was conducted for: (1) different reloading scenarios; (2) target burnups; and (3) two fuel assembly...
