Development of End Plug Welding Technique for SFR Fuel Rod Fabrication
Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016 In Korea, R&D on a sodium‐cooled fast reactor (SFR) was begun in 1997, as one of the national long‐term nuclear R&D programs. As one fuel option for a prototype SFR, a metallic fuel, U‐Zr alloy fuel, was selected and is currently being developed. For the fabrication of SFR metallic fuel rods, the end plug welding is a crucial process.
