Radial Dependence of the Thermal Conductivity and its Link to Microstructure for UO2 Samples with an Average Burn-up around 100 MWd/kgHM.
Since 1993, the Institute for Transuranium Elements and Framatome APN GmbH have been co-operating in a study of the performance of PWR fuel at burn-ups beyond 60 MWd/kgHM.
The fuel pellet and rod design characteristics were already described. The rods were standard PWR design for Siemens built reactors. Samples from the high power region of the fuel rod with an average burn-up of 97.8 MWd/kgHM were examined in previous studies.
