Analysis of the Falcon thermal-gradient tube experiments
Description
The work described in this report was performed in support of the Falcon experimental programme, and was part-funded by the CEC and HSE. The analyses of some of the earlier Falcon thermal-gradient tube experiments, namely tests TG-1, TG-2, TG-3, TG-6 and TG-7, using the VICTORIA computer code are discussed. In each test an induction furnace was used to heat a simulant or trace-irradiated LWR fuel and/or control rod sample. The resulting fission product vapours and aerosols were transported at high temperatures through a thermal-gradient tube system, and their deposition behaviour and chemical activities were measured.
