Accident tolerant fuels to replace uranium dioxide
Abstract The thermal conductivities for the traditional fuel UO2 and for the Accident Tolerant Fuel (uranium Molybdenum alloy, U-10Mo and uranium silicide, U3Si2) are calculated and compared. Then the temperature distributions on these core reactor, namely on the surface of the rod and in the center line of the rod were determined.
