Abstract
During the Transformational Challenge Reactor (TCR) program, multiple nuclear safety-related brackets were made by ORNL researchers at the MDF. These brackets were then provided to Framatome for assembly onto a fuel assembly and later insertion into TVA's Browns Ferry Nuclear Power Plant (Unit 2). This report analyzes the economics of creating these additively manufactured components.
