Description
A nuclear fuel element is described. It includes a central nuclear fuel core and a composite cladding composed of a substrate, the inner face of which is coated with copper, nickel, iron or one of their alloys. The nuclear fuel is selected from uranium compounds, plutonium compounds or mixtures thereof. The substrate is selected from zirconium and zirconium alloys
Abstract (French)
On presente un element de combustible nucleaire. Il comprend un noyau central de combustible nucleaire et une gaine composite de forme allongee, composee d'un substrat pourvu sur sa face interne d'une couche metallique de cuivre, de nickel, de fer ou d'un de leurs alliages. Le combustible nucleaire est choisi parmi les composes de l'uranium, les composes de plutonium, ou les melanges de ceux-ci. On choisit le substrat parmi le zirconium et les alliages de zirconiumAdditional details
