Reactivity measurements of SiC for accident-tolerant fuel

Progress in Nuclear Energy, 2015
Abstract Silicon carbide (SiC) is a candidate structural material for application with accident-tolerant fuel for light water reactors, which is expected to decrease heat and hydrogen generation resulting from oxidation reaction with high-temperature steam. Although there are studies on irradiation properties of SiC for fusion reactors and gas-cooled

Composite Versus Dispersed Accident Tolerant Nuclear Fuels

Volume 3: Nuclear Fuel and Material, Reactor Physics and Transport Theory; Innovative Nuclear Power Plant Design and New Technology Application, 2017
In this study, we analyze and compare the temperature profiles, and temperature gradient profiles of UN, U3Si2 and U3O8 aluminum (Al) dispersed nuclear fuels to propose safer nuclear fuels with enhanced thermal conductivity. To calculate the electronic and lattice thermal conductivities, we use EPW, BoltzTrap and ShengBTE codes implemented with Quantum

Enhanced Accident Tolerance of Thoria-Based Nuclear Fuels

Journal of Nuclear Engineering and Radiation Science, 2019
Abstract Many factors need to be investigated before alternative nuclear fuel can be adapted for service in the harsh environment of a nuclear reactor. Urania, used conventionally as a nuclear fuel, has a low thermal conductivity, which degrades with increasing stoichiometric deviation.
