Thorium cycle has many advantages over uranium cycle in thermal and intermediate
spectrum nuclear reactors. In addition to large amount of resources in the world which up to
now still not utilized optimally, thorium based thermal reactors may have high internal
conversion ratio so that they are very potential to be designed as long-life reactors without
on-site refueling based on thermal spectrum cores. In this study preliminary study for
application of thorium cycle in some of thermal reactors has been performed. We applied …
