Resumen:
A new concept for HWR fue bundles, namely CARA, is presented. The CARA design allows to improve all the major performances in the PHWR fuel technology. Among others, it reaches higher burnup and thermalhydraulic safety margins with lower fuel pellet temepratures and r/HM mass ratio, keeping the ful mass content ratio similar to present levels, regarding current designs.
