As a part of the nuclear fuel cycle in Japan, the mixed oxide (MOX) fuels are produced through the microwave heating of the Pu/U mixed nitrate solution obtained from spent fuels. In this work, we investigate the effect of a spacer between the bottom of cavity and solution dish in microwave oven cavity to heat unifomly Pu/U mixed nitrate solution for making MOX fuels. As a result, we show the effectiveness of inserting the spacer for a uniform heating of the solution by evaluating the top-to-bottom ratio.

As a part of the nuclear fuel cycle in Japan, the mixed oxide (MOX) fuels are produced through the microwave heating of the Pu/U mixed nitrate solution obtained from spent fuels. This paper investigated the electric power absorption of the solid Pu/U mixed nitrate medium in a cylindrical oven cavity and the effect of the input polarized waves. The numerical simulations have revealed that the incidence of the circularly polarized wave improves the uniformity of the absorbed power of the medium placed in the cylindrical cavity.

In the nuclear cycle system, reprocessing solutions (plutonium and uranium mixed nitrate solution) produced from spent nuclear fuel is converted to Mixed Oxide (MOX) by a microwave heating (MH) method in Japan. The electric constant of the reprocessing solution is varied by its phase state on heating and denitration reaction and affects the microwave heating property. It is important to understand the property of the microwave heating for improving the efficiency. Therefore the temperature distribution of the solid state of the reprocessing solution is investigated by the electromagnetic analysis and thermal analysis using FDTD method and thermal analysis method. As a result, the absorbed power of the solid-state Pu-U mixed nitrate are concentrated at upper surface and periphery, and generated heat flows to below.
