Description

After a recall of the history of the CABRI reactor, this paper presents the present program of this reactor being carried out. It deals with the behavior of fast breeder reactor fuel assemblies (UO2 or UO2-PuO2, irradiated or new) during a transient overpower accident

Abstract (French)

Apres un rappel de l'historique du reacteur CABRI, cet article nous presente le programme de ce reacteur qui doit se terminer fin 1986. Il concerne le comportement d'assemblages combustibles pour reacteur rapide surgenerateur (UO2 ou UO2-PuO2, irradies ou neufs) pendant une excursion de puissance accidentelle
