One is realized by loading an appropriate amount of129I before the startup of the reactor, and the amount of129I during operation is kept constant by online feeding129I.The other adopts only an initial loading of129I before startup, and no other129I is fed online during operation.The investigation first focuses on the effect of the loading of I on the Th-233U isobreeding performance. The results indicate that a233U isobreeding mode can be achieved for both scenarios for a 60-year operation when the initial molar proportion of LiI is maintained within 0.40% and 0.87%, respectively. Then, the transmutation performances for the two scenarios are compared by changing the amount of injected iodine into the core. It is found that the scenario that adopts an initial loading of129I shows a slightly better transmutation performance in comparison with the scenario that adopts online feeding of129I when the net233U productions for the two scenarios are kept equal. The initial loading of129I scenario with LiI = 0.87% molar proportion is recommended for129I transmutation in the SD-TMSR,and can transmute 1.88 t of129I in the233U isobreeding mode over 60 years.展开更多
