Nuclear data sensitivity and uncertainty for the Canadian supercritical water-cooled reactor

Accurate and complete nuclear data are a fundamental requirement for any nuclear reactor model. Present nuclear data evaluations have been tested and validated against experiments that cover operating conditions and materials that are typical of conventional reactors (e.g. thermal light and heavy water moderated reactors, and some fast reactors). The Canadian supercritical water-cooled reactor (SCWR) is an advanced reactor concept for which, …
