Analysis of fatigue strength for CANFLEX endplate

Description

A stress analysis of the endplate was performed under the condition that the CANFLEX fuel bundle was subjected to the axial flow in the reactor. The model developed by Tayal and Choo for the application to the standard 37-element bundle for the same purpose was used in the analysis. The model developed by Paidoussis for predicting the vibration amplitude of an element was also used, but before the use the model was validated with the results obtained from excitation tests of CANFLEX fuel elements.
