Creators

Description

A program of in-pile investigations of fuel assmeblies (FA) produced by the Combustion Engineering company and used in the PWR reactors is delivered. Factors affecting FA reliability are presented, structures with high wear resistance are described. Results of studying the FA with fuel of low enrichment and temperature and irradiation effects on tensile properties of fuel cans made of zircaloy-4 are presented
