| Abstract | The Integrated Multi-Modular Fast reactor is a pre-conceptual small modular fast reactor design consisting of 7 self-consist subcritical modules, each utilizing a BeO-MOX concept fuel with complete supercritical CO2 brayton cycle turbo-machinery. The subcritical modules, when brought into proximity of one another, form a complete critical reactor core. The feasibility of the reactor is assessed on a full core level, which includes a neutronics, thermal hydraulics, balance of plant, economics, and economics analysis. It has been shown that a critical configuration lasting for 14 years at 10 MWth can be achieved. A hot channel thermal hydraulics and safety analysis shows that the reactor can operate within safety limits with negative temperature coefficients of reactivity as well as stay within fuel temperature limits. A plant thermal efficiency of 36% was achieved and there is room for optimization to achieve higher efficiencies. An economical feasibility assessment shows that the reactor can be economical based on an economy of serial production argument. The analysis also leads to a licensing discussion. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
