*Masaki Okagaki1, Willem F.G. van Rooijen1 (1. Univ. of Fukui)

Keywords:Nuclear Thermal Propulsion, Nuclear Thermal Rocket, Space Reactor, SULEU, Reprocessed Pu

This presentation is a sequel to "[1I03] Study on Application of Reprocessed Pu to Nuclear Thermal Propulsion Reactors" on AESJ 2020 Fall Meeting.
Nuclear Thermal Propulsion is a next generation propulsion system that several institutes are conducting its research. We inverstigated a feasibility of a model which reprocessed Pu is added to low enriched U fuel by SCALE.
