Abstract

The performance characteristic and startup process of advanced space fast reactor RAPID-L were demonstrated with the transient analysis model. The results show that the refuelled period of RAPID-L is 10 years, and the reactor power can be adjusted by primary flow rate control, and it can start automatically with LRM (Lithium Release Module) and LEM (Lithium Expansion Module). Therefore, RAPID-L can operate for a long time and achieve auto-operation without operator. So it fulfils the demand of space operation.
