Abstract
To demonstrate capabilities of SITON v2.0, a hypothetical transient fuel cycle is presented in which a 4-unit VVER-440 reactor park was replaced by one GFR2400 that recycled its own spent fuel. It is found that the GFR2400 can be started if the cooling time of its spent fuel is 2Â years. However, if the cooling time is 5Â years it needs an additional plutonium feed, which can be covered from the spent fuel of a Generation III light water reactor.
