Applications to CANDU Reactors
2012This chapter gives examples of how engineering data of DHC initiation, growth rate, and solvus determinations, supported by theoretical models, and associated underlying property measurements and analyses, are applied in integrity assessments of pressure tubes of CANDU reactors. Examples are given of (1) planar and volumetric flaw assessment approaches

Fuel management in CANDU reactors
Annals of Nuclear Energy, 1976Abstract CANDU fuel management differs completely from that in LWR's. On-power refuelling of the pressurized fuel channels with short (50 cm) fuel bundles is a continuing function of reactor operations and leads rapidly to equilibrium core conditions, refuelling rate, and fuel burn-up.

CANDU Fuel—Power Ramp Performance Criteria
Nuclear Technology, 1977Extensive fuel performance data obtained from Canadian Deuterium Uranium (CANDU) power reactors and experimental reactors are analyzed. Various modes of power ramping that cause fuel defects are identified, and fuel defect criteria are derived. The probability of a defect occurring in a power ramp is found to depend on the magnitude of the ramped power,

Thermal Fatigue in CANDU Stations
Volume 1: Plant Operations, Maintenance, Engineering, Modifications and Life Cycle; Component Reliability and Materials Issues; Next Generation Systems, 2009The risk of thermal fatigue, and the resulting pressure boundary failures, have resulted in a significant amount of research in the Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) and Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) communities in the past two decades. Thermal stresses arising from thermal stratification phenomena are typically not taken into account in design ...

Power Transient in a CANDU Reactor
1978In this report, the effectiveness of a proposed Shutoff Rod System a CANDU Reactor was investigated. A full core simulation was done, to study the neutronic power transient following a change in coolant conditions.
