Summary
The critical masses and fission and explosive energy releases of PuO/sub 2/, PuO/sub 2/-UO/sub 2/, UO/sub 2/ and UO/sub 3/ assemblies were calculated. The choice of parameters used in the model is conservative and was chosen after review of appropriate plants that have been and are proposed for construction in the future. The resulting data envelopes are intended to include any conceivable set of circumstances that could ultimately lead to a nuclear incident. All energy release analysis was performed for initial fission spikes only; recriticality mechanisms were not considered.
