Measurement of grid spans of irradiated fuel assemblies

  • 1. KAERI, Taejon (Korea, Republic of)

Description

The grid spans of fuel assemblies, which were irradiated for 2 cycles and 3 cycles in Kori 1 and Kori 2 reactor, were measured and analyzed with visual dimensional inspection stand at examination/dismantling pool of PIEF. The elongation rates of grid spans of lower part of irradiated fuel assemblies, by comparing measurement values of grid spans of irradiated fuel assemblies with design values of grid spans of fuel assemblies, are smaller than those of grid spans of mid and upper part of irradiated fuel assemblies, respectively. The elongation rates of each face of irradiated fuel assemblies indicate similar trend, respectively. It is confirmed that the elongation rates of grid spans of irradiated fuel assemblies have no relation with the burnup of irradiated fuel assemblies
