Design of fuel rod simulators for thermodynamic experiments

Creators

  • 1. Institut fuer Reaktorbauelemente, Karlsruhe, Germany

Description

The thermodynamic behavior of nuclear fuel rods are discussed. Requirements for thermodynamic fuel rod simulators (FRS) are listed, and the performance of different simulation principles are compared with the requirements. FRS developed in Kernforschungszentrum Karlsruhe are described. Their reliability, performance, and the degree of simulation of nuclear fuel rods are presented
