Leading the charge: INL’s role in advancing HALEU production
Idaho National Laboratory is playing a key role in helping the U.S. Department of Energy meet near-term needs by recovering HALEU from federal inventories, providing critical support to help lay the foundation for a future commercial HALEU supply chain. INL also supports coordination of broader DOE efforts, from material recovery at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina to commercial enrichment initiatives.

A computer routine was written to enable an efficient, yet accurate, interpolation of the basic probabilities required in integral transport calculations of single lattice, as well as multicell, structures. These are The tables within which the routine interpolates contain remainders between accurate probabilities to respective analytical approximations. There are ∼4000 entries for a cylindrical or spherical geometry and 50 for slab geometry. The accuracy is generally within a few tenths of a percent relative error for all the probabilities and can be much lower. The range of optical thicknesses covered is 0 to 20. All the probabilities required for a given layer can be generated on a CRA Y-XMP in a 5 × 10-6 s. A single Dancoff probability can be generated in ∼2.7 × 10-6 s.
