Popis: Self-Consistent Nuclear Energy System simultaneously meets four requirements: energy generation, fuel breeding, burning of radionuclides and system safety. Multi-component nuclear energy system composed of fast and thermal reactors has a potential to approach to self-consistency provided external neutron sources are included in its structure. This paper deals with general analysis of such a system with focus on neutron production, minor actinide fissioning and plutonium vector at equilibrium stage.
