Top Fuel 2016 Proceedings

Description

Top Fuel, also called Light Water Reactor (LWR) Fuel Performance Meeting, is an annual topical meeting whose primary objective is to bring together leading specialists in LWR fuel from around the world to analyze advances in nuclear fuel technology and to use the findings of the latest cutting-edge research to help manufacture high performance nuclear fuels of today and tomorrow. The conference hosts 2 plenary sessions, 2 special sessions, and numerous technical sessions organized into 5 technical track ares: Track 1 - Fuel performance reliability, operations and maintenance experience; Track 2 - Advances in fuel technologies (e.g., enhanced accident tolerant fuel); Track 3 - Transient and off-normal fuel behavior; Track 4 - Used fuel storage, transportation, and reuse/recovery; and Track 5 - Fuel modeling and analysis. These proceedings gather 169 papers
