ABSTRACT
Several options of the WWR-K reactor initial and stationary core configurations are considered with the tube/pin-type fuel assemblies on a base of the high-density low-enriched U-Mo fuel. Outcomes of the comparative study of the neutron characteristics and the WWR-K reactor cycle periods are presented.
