Description

The constant vaporizing composition of UO2 at 2150 and 2800 K was calculated, and its possible variation with the enthalpy of formation of UO3(g) and UO(g) studied. Very large negative values of the enthalpy of formation of UO3(g) are needed to move the constant vaporizing composition significantly below UO2.0. (orig.)
