Description

Paper dwells upon the results of the efforts to study the effect of the additive elements on the fuel features under the conditions peculiar to the irradiation of the water-cooled reactor fuel elements. One studied the behaviour of the uranium oxide fuel containing mixes of oxides of aluminum, niobium, iron under irradiation of the pilot fuel elements in the MIR test reactor. One shows the possibility to use the aluminosilicate additive elements to improve the performance of the fuel pellets under the reactor irradiation

Abstract (Russian)

Изложены результаты работы, которая была выполнена в целях изучения влияния легирующих добавок на свойства топлива в условиях, характерных для эксплуатации твэлов водоохлаждаемых реакторов. Исследовано поведение уранового оксидного топлива с добавками смеси оксидов алюминия, кремния, ниобия, железа при реакторном облучении экспериментальных твэлов в исследовательском реакторе МИР. Показана возможность использования алюмосиликатных добавок для улучшения эксплуатационных характеристик топливных таблеток в условиях реакторного облучения
