Abstract
A model was developed to simulate the coupled dynamics of a sub-critical fast
reactor fueled with transuranics (TRU), a DT tokamak fusion neutron source and the heat
removal and secondary systems. Several types of accident initiating events—inadvertent
increases in the auxilliary power and fueling sources for the fusion neutron source,
inadvertent control rod ejection from the reactor core, loss of flow (LOFA), and loss of
heat sink (LOHSA)—were simulated in order to determine the time available to detect
accident onset and take corrective action. A more detailed description is presented in
Ref. 1.
