A traveling-wave reactor (TWR) is a proposed type of nuclear fission reactor that can convert fertile material into usable fuel through nuclear transmutation, in tandem with the burnup of fissile material.

2016年3月1日 · The traveling wave reactor (TWR) is a once-through reactor that uses in situ breeding to greatly reduce the need for enrichment and reprocessing. Breeding converts incoming subcritical reload fuel into new critical fuel, allowing a breed-burn wave to propagate.

The Supercat isn’t a restomod, nor is it a new car. It’s a TWR, a mix of traditional and modern, the perfect companion on road or track. Penned by a digital forward designer with input from rock and roll traditionalism, developed using tried and tested technology bolstered with modern techniques, it’s an analogue car with digital influences.

2013年11月1日 · This paper describes the origins and current status of the TWR development program at TerraPower, LLC. Some of the areas covered include the key TWR design challenges and brief descriptions of TWR-Prototype (TWR-P) reactor.

TerraPower is an American nuclear reactor design and development engineering company headquartered in Bellevue, Washington. TerraPower is developing a class of nuclear fast reactors termed traveling wave reactors (TWR). [1] TWR places a small core of enriched fuel in the center of a much larger mass of non-fissile material, in this case ...

The “Traveling Wave Reactor” (TWR) is a proposed reactor design that belongs to a set known as Generation IV designs that are different in a number of respects than the current commercial designs which use water to cool the reactor and slow down (“moderate”) the neutrons that sustain the chain reaction. It was first conceived in

2024年10月18日 · The travelling wave reactor (or TWR for short) is a theoretical type of nuclear reactor designed to operate for extended periods of time without refuelling. In a TWR, nuclear fission is initiated in a small region of enriched fuel within the reactor core, releasing neutrons that are absorbed by surrounding fertile nuclei.

Compared to the conventional reactors capturing only about 1 percent of the energy potential of their fuel, TWR represents a new class of nuclear reactor. Conceptually, TWR reactor design allows TWR to utilize depleted uranium as their primary fuel.
