Description

ENEA, AGN and CEA have collaborated in developing and effectuating the new fuel fabrication technique GSP. In that framework, three irradiation experiments in the SILOE reactor are projected for studying certain characteristics of GSP fuel in comparison with standard fuels (type FBR). The three experiments facilitate the analysis of the thermal behaviour and the fuel pin deformations up to a high burnup. In this paper, the experimental devices are described (5 designs) and the irradiation conditions are briefly discussed. (G.J.P.)
