MARVEL FUEL SYSTEM AND PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaperpeer-review

Abstract

The US Department of Energy Microreactor Program has initiated the deployment of a new microreactor at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL). INL, in collaboration with Los Alamos National Laboratory, Argonne National Laboratory, and TRIGA International, has designed the Microreactor Applications Research Validation and Evaluation (MARVEL) which aims to be a first of its kind microreactor. The MARVEL reactor design was inspired by both the System for Nuclear Auxiliary Power (SNAP) program of the 1960's and TRIGA research reactors. To be discussed will be the fuel system of MARVEL, and the concepts shared from SNAP and TRIGA, that have led to the design and qualification of the MARVEL fuel system.
