Description

The compilation of a database on nuclear fuel performance is described for the purpose of code development and validation. The background behind its formation and the progress made to date is presented in assembling 291 datasets from various sources encompassing PWR, BWR and WWER reactor systems. Agreement has been reached for the inclusion of further cases which will be processed into a common format for storage and retrieval in the OECD/NEA Data Bank. (author)
