Thermalhydraulics of advanced 37-element fuel bundle in crept pressure tubes
EPJ Nuclear Sciences & Technologies, 2016 A CANDU-6 reactor, which has 380 fuel channels of a pressure tube type, is suffering from aging or creep of the pressure tubes. Most of the aging effects for the CANDU primary heat transport system were originated from the horizontal crept pressure tubes.
