Thermal Performance of High Burn-Up LWR Fuel Seminar Proceedings, Cadarache, France, 3-6 March 1998
Proper heat removal from the fuel is essential for the safe operation of nuclear reactors used for electricity production. As nuclear fuel is burnt it undergoes important changes, including a degradation of its thermal conductivity. This important phenomenon needs to be reliably predicted in order t...
