• A metal fueled modular island core sodium cooled fast breeder reactor concept RAPID-M to improve reactor performance and proliferation resistance and to accommodate various power requirements has been demonstrated. The essential feature of the RAPID-M concept is that the reactor core consists of integrated fuel assemblies (IFAs) instead of conventional fuel subassemblies. The RAPID concept enables quick and simplified refueling by replacing IFAs in which all the core and blanket fuel elements are comprised. In this paper, the 600 MWe RAPID-M design consists of 7 IFAs is presented. Significant reactor mass savings and the improvement of inherent safety features are discussed. Plant dynamics analyses using the multi-point reactor kinetics equations to accommodate the modular core configuration demonstrated a favorable transient response in case of unprotected transient over power (UTOP).
