Abstract :
The initiating postulate of energy has hairsplitting the prerequisite of alternative reservoirs of energies other than fossil fuels. At the present time, considering cost factors, environmental viability and unlimited resource of power, nuclear is one of the best options and in this era of energy crisis. In this paper, Characteristic features of gen-4 nuclear reactors, its reactivity control mechanism, characteristic features of fission reactors, reactor kinetics and accelerator models have been discussed. As well as transient analysis of reactor via simulation and its industrial viability has been discussed in this paper.
