Robert Mills, Description
The fractional fission rates of the nine most important nuclides in AGR, BWR and PWR uranium dioxide nuclear fuel were calculated using the FISPIN10A code for a typical range of uranium enrichments (weight percentage of \(^{235}\) U wrt U) and power ratings (MW/t). The irradiation, aka burnup or exposure, range covered was zero to 51 in steps of 1 (GWd/t). These can be used to calculate aggregate properties of nuclear fuel where the property differs between different fissioning systems.
