Description
Following the final shutdown of DFR in March 1977, the examination of irradiation experiments from the last reactor loading has continued. These have included subassemblies at up to 14.7% burnup with four intermediate examinations and single fuel pins at up to 21% burnup which have been examined at ten burnup increments. Results are presented on clad strain development as a function of temperature, neutron dose, burnup and cladding material and on microstructural features of both fuel and clad
