Description

The possibility of rim pore interconnection to the outer surface of high burnup LWR UO2 fuel pellet in rim structure, which could affect fission gas release behavior, was analyzed by percolation method. Because most pores were analyzed not to be interconnected to the surface in the range of porosity observed, the fission gas release would not be affected by pore interconnection in the rim structure. Only some pores near the surface of fuel pellet could make open paths to the surface of fuel pellet
