Title: Brief description of LMFBR fuel handling systems
Abstract: The prominent features of fuel handling systems are summarized for operating and near-operating fast reactor power plants in the United States and foreign countries. The methods for removing fuel from the core, storing spent fuel in the primary tanks, and transporting the discharged fuel to spent-fuel handling cells are discussed. Emphasis in most reactor fuel handling systems has been placed on minimum shutdown time for refueling. (auth)
