In this study, the graphite-gas reactor HTR-10 is simulated using the MCNPx Monte Carlo code, considering the random placement of the fuel and moderator pebbles. Core neutronic parameters are calculated and compared with IAEA documents. Burn up calculations are performed for uranium oxide fuel and combined thorium-plutonium oxide fuel. The results show that the combined fuel has a longer cycle length about 28 percent more than the uranium oxide fuel. It is also better used in relation to nuclear safeguards.
