Description

Having first defined the expected of nuclear fuel, one examines the results obtained in the field of manoeuvrability and availability. The paper goes on to describe the works carried on in order to reduce the costs of PWR fuels and to improve their performances

Abstract (French)

Apres avoir defini les qualites attendues du combustible nucleaire, on examine les performances actuelles des combustibles du point de vue de la manoeuvrabilite et de la disponibilite des tranches. On presente ensuite les actions engagees afin de reduire les couts et d'ameliorer encore les caracteristiques des combustibles REP afin qu'ils repondent de facon toujours plus satisfaisante aux besoins futurs des exploitants
