What is Boron Control in PWRs and FHRs about?
The document discusses the use of boron as a neutron absorber in Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs) and Fluoride-Salt Cooled High Temperature Reactors (FHRs), highlighting its effectiveness and challenges, particularly regarding tritium production. Recommendations include using boron carbide pellets clad in stainless steel for PWR control rods and a boron packing fraction greater than 50% for FHR shielding to minimize burn-up. The report also suggests implementing a tritium permeation barrier to limit leakag
