Esben and I talked about the following action items which would be nice to get cleared while I am getting a reader code up and running before starting the more hardcore simulations - Esben will look into it:
1: Test the no-rubidium salts in SiC moderator using IMM (given time, test also Rb).
2: Test the pure actinide vector (using IMM) from Eiriks PWR in SiC – Find the minimum concentration in fuel
(find x in xAcF¬4-(1-x)(.7LiF-.3BeF – where keff>1)).
3: Same as 2, but with fission products – that is without Cs, I and nobel gasses (potentially also without Sm and others).
3a. Do a simple, burnup and see which FP isotopes is worst (most (n,gamma)) for our reactor…
4: Make the deck less infinite (maybe this should be done before 2.) – one could open up one side with 10 cm fuel salt…?
5: Check thermal expansion coefficient, i.e increase temperature and density of salt check that keff goes down, then increase the temp and expand the moderator, and see if it comes back up (I think it might).
