The full ceramic micro-packaging dispersion fuel is a novel accident-resistant fuel, and the coating fuel particles are dispersed in a matrix, so that the fuel has the advantages of higher burning depth, better containment and heat transfer performance and the like. Wherein, the dispersed burnable poison particles are added into the FCM fuel, and the reactivity process can be flexibly controlled for a long time under the condition of not causing power distortion. Furthermore, from a production process point of view, FCM is well compatible with particulate burnable poison.
Different from fuel particles, the burnable poison particles have extremely large neutron absorption cross sections, and the spatial self-shielding effect caused by the special spatial structure of the burnable poison particles causes a phenomenon of layered combustion in the burnup process, namely: the outer layer of the granule is preferentially consumed while the inner layer maintains higher integrity; the fuel particles do not experience such significant stratification. In the existing method, to accurately reduce the layering phenomenon of the toxic particles, the structure of the toxic particles needs to be further subdivided, so that huge grid calculation amount is caused, and the calculation load is large, which is not realizable in large-scale full-stack calculation; the fuel particles dispersed in the matrix are different from the poison particles, so that the layering phenomenon does not exist, the fuel particles do not need to be divided too finely, but have double heterogeneity and need to be treated separately.
The matrix is mixed with various complex structures such as cladding fuel particles, burnable poison particles and the like and corresponding characteristics thereof, so that an efficient and high-fidelity solving method is absent at present in the process of processing the layered burnup effect of the burnable poison particles in the all-ceramic micro-encapsulation dispersed Fuel (FCM).

In the fuel rod region, fuel particles and poison particles are dispersed in the SiC matrix; wherein the fuel particles account for 30% of the total fuel bundle volume fraction and the particulate poisons account for 1% of the total fuel bundle volume fraction. The fuel adopts UO2 with the enrichment degree of 20%, the radius of fuel particles is 800um, and the outer diameter of the fuel particles is 980 um; the burnable poison is Gd2O3 with the particle radius of 500 um.

In the equivalent model, the external moderator layer and the cladding layer are kept unchanged, the spherical structure of the poison particles is scattered and uniformly mixed into the SiC matrix, and the structure and the components of the dispersed fuel particles in the matrix are kept unchanged. Among them, it is necessary to adjust a series of nuclear density changes due to volume changes of the structure according to the volume ratio.
Adjusting the nuclear density of the SiC matrix according to the mixing proportion; the volume fraction of burnable poison is 1% here, so that the space occupied by the SiC molecules is expanded from 69% to 70%, and therefore the nucleus density needs to be multiplied by 69/70 to keep the total amount constant.

In the initial state, K — 1.095868; the average flux level after normalization, phi, is 3.4065721E + 00.
And S205, macro-micro coupling calculation.
In the microscopic fine model, a stratified burnup calculation was made at a constant flux φ (obtained in S4) to obtain a multilayered new nucleus density n of poison particles. And (4) updating the poison layer nucleus density N and the fuel layer nucleus density N of the micro model again, and repeating the steps S201-S205 in a circulating manner, so that the multi-scale coupled fuel consumption calculation in the whole service life can be completed. And f, K, phi, N, n and other important fuel consumption data in the whole calculation process are counted.
S206, verifying and concluding.
The embodiment is based on a multi-scale coupling method, and has the inherent advantages of high efficiency, small calculation amount and the like in more complicated and large-scale core calculation. And solving the whole fuel consumption process by completely adopting a collision probability method to serve as a reference solution of the calculation precision. By comparison, in the whole layered burnup process of calculating and solving dispersed fuel and toxic particles, the overall error level is within 250pcm, the initial error level is about 100pcm, and the final error is higher due to a larger error caused by too low nuclide density at the end of the service life and an accumulated error along with burnup to a certain extent, but is kept within 300 pcm. Therefore, the method is proved to have higher precision, and the error graph is shown in figure 5.
In summary, compared with the prior art, the method of the embodiment has the following beneficial effects: the method combines the equivalent homogenization and the collision probability method, avoids the technical problems of over-dense grids, over-large calculated amount and the like in the fuel consumption solving process, and greatly improves the calculation efficiency while truly and comprehensively reflecting the fuel consumption performance of the fuel particles and the toxic particles. Wherein, under larger scale computing conditions (such as component level and full stack level computing), more excellent computing performance can be obtained.
